Esta Noche Me Emborracho

Carlos Gardel Carlos Gardel

Tonight I Get Drunk

Alone, faded, worn out, I saw her this early morning
Leaving a cabaret, skinny, two neck quarters
And a hanger in the neckline under the Adam's apple
Crooked, dressed like a young girl, dyed and flirting
Her nudity, seemed like a plucked rooster
Showing off to the swagger the pecked leather
I don't know when I can't take it anymore
Seeing her like that, I split to not cry

And to think that ten years ago she was my madness
That I went as far as betrayal for her beauty
That what is now a wreck
Was the sweet mistake where I lost my honor
That crazy for her beauty, I took the old lady's bread
I became mean and sinful
That I was left without a friend, that I lived in bad faith
That she had me on my knees
Without morals, like a beggar when she left

I never thought I would see her in a requiescat in pace
As cruel as today
Look, if it's not to commit suicide, that for that trinket
I am what I am
Fierce revenge of time
That makes you see destroyed what you loved
This encounter has hurt me so much
That if I think about it more, I end up poisoned
Tonight I get drunk well
I get really wasted to not think
