Destapame otra ceRveza
porq ya me estoy seCandO
no piensen qe soy borracHO
tampco qe soy un santO
me gusta empinar el codO
nomas ay de ves en cuandO

el mundo en el qe vivimOs
es un mundO fabulosO
hay qe gozar sus encantOs
todo esta esho pa nosotrOs
olvidensen de la penas
por favor abran los ojOs

las noches se me asen cortas
cuando ando empinando el codO
plaseres y mas plaseres
cerveza vino y cotorrO
amigos norteño y banda
asi soy feliz ni modO

me gusta ser gente libre
tan libre como es el aire
no me gustan los problemas
tampoco le temo a nadie
si me buscan les atorO
haci me enseño mi padre

no hay qe pensar en la muerte
porqe esa llega solita
hay qe pensar en la vida
como vivirla bonita
no hay qe esperar el mañana
vamos a empesar aorita

las noches se me asen cortas
cuando ando empinando el codO
placeres y mas placeres
cerveza vino y cotorrO




amigos norteño y banda
