Las mujeres dicen que es un delirante

Lleva siempre traje negro

Igual que la noche de su largo pelo

Y el color de su mirada
And the color of his gaze
Tiene los misterios de la madrugada

Y por andar de mujer en mujer

Sale siempre por las noches,
He always goes out at night
Cuando no camina va en su negro coche
When he doesn't walk, he goes in his black car
Y a su lado siempre lleva
And always by his side
Su vieja guitarra y una amiga nueva.
