(J.Sabina)
Cuando era más joven viajé en sucios trenes que iban hacia el norte
Y dormí con chicas que lo hacían con hombres por primera vez,
Compraba salchichas y olvidaba luego pagar el importe.
Cuando era más joven me he visto esposado delante del juez.
Cuando era más joven cambiaba de nombre en cada aduana,
Cambiaba de casa, cambiaba de oficio, cambiaba de amor,
Mañana era nunca y nunca llegaba pasado mañana,
Cuando era más joven buscaba el placer engañando al dolor.
Dormía de un tirón cada vez que encontraba una cama,
Había días que tocaba comer, había noches que no,
Fumaba de gorra y sacaba la lengua a las damas
Que andaban del brazo de un tipo que nunca era yo.
Pasaron los años, terminé la mili, me metí en un piso,
Hice algunos discos, senté la cabeza, me instalé en Madrid,
Tuve dos mujeres, pero quise más a la que más me quiso,
Una vez le dije: "¿Te vienes conmigo?" Y contestó que sí.
Hoy como caliente, pago mis impuestos, tengo pasaporte,
Pero algunas veces pierdo el apetito y no puedo dormir
Y sueño que viajo en uno de esos trenes que iban hacia el norte.
Cuando era más joven la vida era dura, distinta y feliz.
Dormía de un tirón cada vez que encontraba una cama,
Había días que tocaba comer, había noches que no,
Fumaba de gorra y sacaba la lengua a las damas
Que andaban del brazo de un tipo que nunca era yo.
Joaquín Sabina (born Joaquín Ramón Martínez Sabina on July 15, 1949 in Úbeda, Spain) is one of the most influential and beloved singer-songwriters in Latin music. Known for his incisive poetry, catchy melodies, and raspy voice, Sabina has captivated a vast audience throughout Latin America and the Spanish-speaking world. His musical journey began in the 1960s with experiences in rock bands and Spanish singer-songwriters. In 1975, he released his debut album, "Inventario", which introduced him to the Spanish public. Over the following years, Sabina solidified his fame with albums such as "Malas compañías" (1982), "19 días y 500 noches" (1984) and "El viaje" (1989). His songs often address social, political, and personal themes, always with a touch of irony and sarcasm. Sabina is known for his collaborations with other artists such as Joan Manuel Serrat, Fito Páez, and Miguel Ríos. Some of his most famous songs include "Y nos dieron las diez", "La Mandrágora", "Contigo" and "Pajarita de papel".
