Translation

Por esa puta costumbre

Because of that damn habit

De andar haciéndome el vivo

Of acting like I'm sharp

El que se las sabe todas

The one who knows everything

Y todas las ha vivido

And has lived through it all

El que tuvo mil amores

The one who had a thousand loves

Llorando sobre su almohada

Crying on his pillow

Por esa puta costumbre

Because of that damn habit

Al final no tengo nada

In the end, I have nothing


Por esa puta costumbre

Because of that damn habit

De regalar carcajadas

Of giving away laughter

Para mostrarle a la gente

To show people

Que nunca lloro por nada

That I never cry for anything

Inventando mil historias

Inventing a thousand stories

Para deslumbrar amigos

To dazzle friends

Por esa puta costumbre

Because of that damn habit

Cuántas cosas he perdido

How many things I've lost


Soy cacho de Buenos Aires

I am Cacho from Buenos Aires

Y no hay farol que me alumbre

And there's no lantern that lights me up

Mi gran amor lo perdí

I lost my great love

Por esa puta costumbre

Because of that damn habit

Soy cacho de Buenos Aires

I am Cacho from Buenos Aires

Y tengo un sueño escondido

And I have a hidden dream

Cantar igual que Gardel

To sing like Gardel


Por esa puta costumbre

Because of that damn habit

De hacerme el galán de moda

Of playing the modern heartthrob

Tomando whisky sin hielo

Drinking whiskey without ice

Saber, saber que es mala la droga

To know, to know that drugs are bad

Cantor que canta al amor

A singer who sings about love

De tanto amor se confunde

Confuses love so much

Y se queda sin amor

And ends up without love

Por esa puta costumbre

Because of that damn habit


Soy cacho de Buenos Aires

I am Cacho from Buenos Aires

Y no hay farol que me alumbre

And there's no lantern that lights me up

Mi gran amor lo perdí

I lost my great love

Por esa puta costumbre

Because of that damn habit

Soy cacho de Buenos Aires

I am Cacho from Buenos Aires

Y tengo un sueño escondido

And I have a hidden dream

Cantar igual que Gardel

To sing like Gardel


Mi Buenos Aires querido

My beloved Buenos Aires

Antes del amanecer

Before the dawn

Voy a entoldarte las calles

I will cover your streets

Por si volviera Gardel

In case Gardel returns
