Salgo e´Santa Marta
Cojo el tren en la estación
Paso por la zona la tierra e´los platanales
Y al llegar a Fundación, sigo en carro para el Valle (bis)
Con esta noticia le fueron a mi mamá
Que yo de lo flaco ya me parecía un fideo
Y es el hambre del liceo
Que no me deja engordá (bis)
¿Qué tiene Escalona, que tiene ese muchacho?
Dicen las personas cuando lo ven tan flaco
Pero es que no saben el hambre que se pasa
Cuando un vallenato se sale de su casa
Tanta yuca buena que se come en la provincia
Tanta carne gorda de novillo empotrerao
Es lo que me mortifica
Cuando me veo tan hambreao (bis)
Por que un vallenato
Acostumbrado como yo
A comer sanconchos no se puede conformar
Con un pedacito e´pan y cuatro granitos de arroz (bis)
Y ahora reconozco que esto castigo de Dios
Por lo pretencioso que allá en mi casa era yo
Me ponían de todo y a mí nada me gustaba
Y ahora me conformo con esta comida mala.
Cuando algún amigo me dice: voy para el Valle
Yo escribo a mi casa y ná más pongo en el papel:
Que me manden de comer, que a mí me está
Matando el hambre y con la letra bien grande
Escribo abajo Rafael (bis)
