lyrics

Déjenme cantarles esta cumbia de la perdición
Puntas en el pecho y en el techo cae nieve, amor
Porque tú no estás aquí

Plata no en las faldas
En los golpes de la calle, amor
Callo cada noche antes de salir al tren los dos
Con esta cumbia a trabajar

Déjenme cantarles esta cumbia que es mi gran dolor
Bailen con mis penas
Pues apenas el baile empezó
Porque tú ya has visto el blanco, el blanco de mi voz
Porque yo ya no camino
Los destinos
Tu cuerpo fino

–¿A qué vino usted, señor?
