Mira como ando mi amor por tu querer
Borracha y apasionada, nomás por tu amor
Mira como ando mi bien
Muy dada a la borrachera y a la perdición

Tú, sólo tú
Has llenado de luto mi vida
Abriendo una herida en mi corazón
Tú, tú, sólo tú
Eres causa de todo mi llanto
De mi desencanto y desesperación

Mira como ando mi bien por tu querer

Sólo tu sombra fatal, sombra del mal
Me sigue por donde quiera con obstinación
Y por quererte olvidar
Me tiro a la borrachera y a la perdición

Tú, sólo tú
Has llenado de luto mi vida
Abriendo una herida en mi corazón
Tú, tú, sólo tú
Eres causa de todo mi llanto
De mi desencanto y desesperación
