Todo A Mi Favor Composer(s): Adrian Abonizio Performer(s): Juan Carlos Baglietto
Siempre preocupado, como sin destino igual que un marinero recién embarcado siento como cantan el Ave María las viejas del barrio allá en las casillas cara de ladrón, ropa muy antigua como un extranjero en su propia quinta abre la ventana la rubia lijera pero ella solo invita a los que tienen tela perdedor por muchas cabezas ganador de la sutileza mientras que otros persiguen el oro solo me contendo por durar un poco sé que esta no es forma ni filosofía solo la defensa de mi pobre vida tengo esperanzas, no las pierdo porque soy un ganador pero creo que este año me irá peor Por eso la otra tarde con ánimo de lucha yo me fuí p'al centro como quien disfruta pero en el 59 aunque iba muy atento una mano amiga me rapiñó el vento no importa me dijo, vamos pa' adelante sin tener en cuenta que andaba cesante y por andar pensando en esas cosas distraído no vi ni la sombra de ese colectivo Perdedor por muchas cabezas ganador de la sutileza mientras que los otros persiguen el oro solo me contento por durar un poco sé que esta no es forma ni filosofía solo la defensa cuando estaba en vida ahora vivo en una nube que no para de llover pago al día mis impuestos más el alquiler los diarios de aquí arriba son todos oficialistas traen las hojas en blanco con la cara del barbita aquí arriba se comenta que hasta el cielo está empeñado que levanten ese muerto, San Pedro y sus asociados tengo esperanza, no las pierdo porque soy un ganador pero creo que este año me irá peor

Today Is Mine Composer(s): Jerry Reed Hubbard Performer(s): Glen Campbell
When the sun came up this morning I took the time to watch it rise And as its beauty struck the darkness From the sky
I thought how small and unimportant All my troubles seem to be And how lucky another day Belongs to me
And as the sleepy world around me Woke up to greet the day All its silent beauty Seemed to say
So what, my friend, if all your dreams You haven't realized Just look around you You've got a new day to try
Today is mine, today is mine To do with what I will Today is mine My own special cup to fill To die a little that I might learn to live To take from life that I might learn to give Today is mine
Like most men I curse the present Void of peace of mind And race my thoughts beyond tomorrow Envision there a sweeter time
But as I view this day around me I can see the fool I've been For today's the only garden That we can tend
Today is mine, today is mine To do with what I will Today is mine My own special cup to fill To die a little that I might learn to live To take from life that I might learn to give Today is mine
