[Verse 1]
Deep down in my soul
I hate rock and roll
And I don't like the way that them drummers beat on the drums
They always hum along, out of tune
I can see Valentino and me
When I hear a tango

[Verse 2]
Electric guitars have gone 'bout as far
As electric guitars can go
If they're talking 'bout loud man
It's more than I can stand
You can go down the hole with your sweet rock and roll
I'll take a tango

[Verse 3]
No quiero pensar que sería de mí
Sin las notas de aquel bandoneón
Hablando por mí
Lo oigo en mi alma
Déjenme sola con mi querido Gardel
Perdida en un tango

[Outro]
I can see Valentino and me
I can see Marlon Brando and me
When I hear a tango
