Oye Cantinero
Tri Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Oye cantinero,
Sírveme otra copa por favor
Quiero estar borracho
Yo quiero sentirme de lo peor,

Quiero tomar mucho para olvidar.
Quiero tomar mucho,
No importa el dinero
Aquí traigo para pagar.

Oye, cantinero
Dame lo que quiero tomar
Ya tengo derecho,
Ya soy mayor de edad.

Oye cantinero,
No te hagas del rogar
Yo sé lo que quiero
Y me quiero emborrachar
Pues la mujer que quiero
Con otro se fue a acostar.

Óigame señor,
Yo a usted nada le puedo servir
Este manicomio no tiene servicio de bar




Y no soy cantinero,
Soy el loquero de este hospital.

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of the song "Oye Cantinero" by Tri describe the singer's desire to drink heavily in order to forget about his problems. The lyrics are directed towards a bartender, who the singer implores to serve him more alcohol despite the fact that he already has enough money to pay for it. The singer also mentions his age, claiming that he is old enough to drink legally. In addition, he mentions a woman he cares for who has gone to bed with someone else.


The song's lyrics are full of desperation and sadness, and it is clear that the singer is in a very bad place emotionally. Through the lyrics, the singer is painting himself as someone who is feeling down and just wants to drink his problems away. Despite the fact that he may already be intoxicated, he seems to crave more and more alcohol to the point where he's willing to pay whatever it takes to get it.


Overall, the song's lyrics are a commentary on the pain and struggle of addiction, as well as the extreme measures that people will take to deal with their problems. The singer is trying to cope with heavy emotions and a sense of loss, and he turns to alcohol to try and numb the pain. The song serves as a reminder that we should always try to reach out for help when we're struggling, as self-medicating with substances is never a healthy solution.

me encanta el rocanrol asi le decimos en argentina..tenes que pegarte un viaje y verlos en vivo es una historia para contarle a tus hijos, nietos... se siente la hermandad entre la banda.. compartir un vino, cerveza con gente que no conoces, abrazarte gritar las canciones con gente que quizas no vuelvas a ver.. es mas a los que roban en los recitales se grita punga punga! y lo cagan a trompadas y se le devuelve lo robado.. es  una hermandad muy hermoso yo lo vivi lo senti y es algo que nunca voy a olvidar.. como la musica une a la gente de distintos lgares, eh inclusive paices.. la renga es un sentimieeento!!
