Gaiteros de Pueblo Santo Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Que mi alma se inunda en llanto, por una Barranquillera
No hay mal cien años, ni cuerpo que lo resista, no hay remedio pa mis males, ni que de alegría me vista
Comandante Petro oiga y tome nota
y espero que entienda porque tengo el alma rota
Comandante Petro oiga y tome nota
qué un corazón triste llora gota a gota.
El que entrega nunca pierde, solo si el amor es puro
Lo blanco no siempre es claro, ni lo negro siempre oscuro
A 'onde el cura nunca asisto, si me acongoja una pena
Pa que no atormente a Cristo Con las desgracias ajenas
Comandante Petro oiga y tome nota
y espero que entienda porque tengo el alma rota
Comandante Petro oiga y tome nota
que un corazón triste llora gota a gota.
