Que me quiten lo bailao [English translation]

Generous with men,

lovely with women,

I have two wild passions:

the roulette and the champagne...

Obstinated with the milonga,

excited with pleasures,

sometimes in debt

and some others wealthy.

What you want me to do, bro?

It's a gift of destiny!

The eagerness of saving money

was never my virtue.

Bubbles electrify me

so the female eyes

from those sweet days

of my joyful youth.

But I don't regret

those pretty moments

that I've enjoyed in my life.

I had everything I wanted...

and even what I didn't want

the thing is that I enjoyed.

My behaviour was sober,

I was generous in the good times

and I cringed in the bad times.

I was tycoon and tramp

and I have much more than the world

that I can give it advantage.

If some hands failed me,

some others were more friendly,

some kisses were sweet,

and some mouths like bile,

but I always had guts

to endure the storms

and as wolf among foxes,

I've became popular.

What you want me to do, bro?

I was born to die poor,

with a cigarrete between my lips

and mixed in a tango.

I play, sing, dance, laugh...

and although I don't have a dime,

when my final hour comes...

They can't take that away from me
