Lyrics La palabra Paco Candela

La palabra


A la una de la tarde
en una venta de ronda,
dos hombres están tratando
un tronco de mulas tordas.
-"que yo no le quito na'
te he "pedío" lo que vale,
que yo no le quito na'?"
-"quítale algo compadre
pa' pagar la "convidá".

Y en aquella "convidá",
se iba cerrando el trato
y en aquella "convidá",
con un apretón de manos
y dos palabras de verdad.

"Te cambio la galga mía
por tu escopeta, compadre,
en el llano y en la herida
por aquí no hay quién la iguale..."
-"algo tienes que poner
encima por la escopeta,
algo tienes que poner,ésta es una paralela
de mi abuelo la heredé?"
sin más notarios que el aire
testigo fue el olivar,
de aquel trato de gordales
y una palabra "na" más.
-"usted lo sabe de mas,
¡pocas como mis gordales!,
usted lo sabe de mas?"
-"eso es lo que puedo darle
ni un duro "alante" ni atrás"?

Solo un apretón de manos
sin firmas y sin papeles,
que la palabra de un hombre
valía más que las leyes.
ya no había más que hablar:
se ganaba o se perdía,
ya no habia más que hablar;
un hombre siempre tenía
una palabra "na" más.

pablo oñós y miguel moyares.
