Original lyrics
¿Cómo que no?
Me gusta este lugar
Me gusta mi barrio
Me gusta este cielo
Me gustan los pibes de mi barrio
Y me gustan los pianos
Los pibes allá en la esquina,
están como dibujados,
no les pagan sus pecados,
no les tocó religión.
Esperan la tardecita
y van hasta la placita,
fuman y beben un poco,
después tocan el tambor.
Porque esperan que en el cielo este el amor
que no tuviste vos, que no
¿Cómo que no?
Miralo, miralo.
Los pibes cumplen condenas,
entran y salen las penas,
entran y salen las penas,
de su niño corazón.
Y tienen la valentía
de ganarse el día a día,
aunque una noche sin luna,
se pierda tu encendedor.
Porque tiene mucho cielo y mucho mar
me gusta este lugar
¿Cómo que no?
Miralo, miralo
Regando el patio a manguera
niña de la primavera
niña de la primavera
regá mi patio de amor
Que llega otro nuevo año
que se somete a la espera
de que se haga verdadera
tu locura y tu ilusión.
Porque tiene mucho cielo y mucho mar
me gusta este lugar, que no
¿Cómo que no?
Miralo, miralo
Oh, ¡no eres tú mi cantar
no puedo cantar, ni quiero
a este Jesús del madero
sino al que anduvo en la mar!
Cantar de la tierra mía
que echa flores
al Jesús de la agonía
que es la fe de mis mayores
Porque tiene mucho cielo y mucho mar
me gusta este lugar
¿Cómo que no?
Miralo, miralo
Porque tiene mucho cielo y mucho mar
me gusta este lugar
¿Cómo que no?
Miralo, miralo.
Porque tiene mucho cielo y mucho mar...

Translation
What do you mean no?
I like this place
I like my neighbourhood
I like this sky
I like the kids from my neighbourhood
And I like pianos
The kids, there in the corner,
it's like they're just drawn
no one pays for their sins,
they didn't get to have a religion.
They wait until the early evening
and they go to that little park
they smoke and drink a little,
then they play the drums.
Because they hope that in the sky there's that love
that you didn't have, you didn't
What do you mean no?
Look at him, look at him
The kids serve sentences,
the sorrow comes and goes,
the sorrow comes and goes,
out of his kid heart.
And they have the bravery
of earning day to day,
even if on a night when there's no moon,
you lose your lighter.
Because it has a lot of sky and a lot of sea
I like this place
What do you mean no?
Look at it, look at it
Watering the backyard with a hose
spring girl
spring girl
water my backyard of love
Because there's another year coming
that's put through your wait
for your madness and your ilusion
to come true.
Because it has a lot of sky and a lot of sea
I like this place
What do you mean no?
Look at it, look at it
Oh, you're not my singing
I can't sing, and I don't even want to
to this wood Jesus
rather to the one that was on the sea!
Singing of my land
that sprouts flowers
to the Jesus of the agony
who is the faith of my elders.
Because it has a lot of sky and a lot of sea
I like this place
What do you mean no?
Look at it, look at it
Because it has a lot of sky and a lot of sea
I like this place
What do you mean no?
Look at it, look at it
Because it has a lot of sky and a lot of sea...
