El Gorgorello
Pedro Infante Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
La cerveza y la botella,
Pero más bonito siento,
Cuando yo me enfrento de ellas.
A salud de los amigos,
Con todos quiero brindar.
Y luego otras pa' seguir,
Y después alegaremos
A la hora que hay que pagar.
Póngale una a don Rufino,
Que hombre tan fino,
Mándenle otra a Nicolás,
Una no más.
Y al gorrón de Baltazar,
Si no dispara,
Mejor se vaya
A acostar.
A salud de los amigos,
Con todos quiero brindar.
Si el dinero se me acaba,
La casa no va a quebrar,
En una barra de hielo
La cuenta van a apuntar.
No le den más agua no,
Del bonachón,
Cada vez que cervecera
Pos se peleya
Y no puede ver fuereño
Por que se le frunce el ceño.
A salud de los amigos,
Con todos quiero brindar
