Lyrics and translation Carlos Gardel - Tomo y obligo - Remastered

Tomo y obligo - Remastered

Tomo y obligo, mandese un trago
Que hoy necesito el recuerdo matar
Sin un amigo, lejos del pago
Quiero en su pecho mi pena volcar

Beba conmigo y si se empaa
De vez en cuando mi voz al cantar
No es que la llore por que me engaa
Yo s que un hombre no debe llorar

Si los pastos conversaran
Esa pampa le dira
De que modo la quera
Con que fiebre la ador
Cuantas veces de rodillas

Tembloroso yo me he hincado
Bajo el rbol deshojado donde un da la bes
Y hoy al verla envilecida
A otros brazos entregada
Fue "pa" mi una pualada

Y de celos me cegu
Y le juro todava, no consigo comprenderme
Como pude contenerme
Y ahi no mas no la mate

Tomo y obligo, mandese un trago
De las mujeres mejor no hay que hablar
Todas, amigo, dan muy mal pago
Hoy mi experiencia lo puede afirmar

Siga un consejo, no se enamore
Y si una vuelta le toca hocicar
Fuerza canejo, sufre y no llores
Que un hombre macho no debe llorar
Si los campos conversaran...

I Drink and Insist - Remastered

I drink and insist, have a drink with me
Today I need to kill the memory
Without a friend, far from home
I want to pour out my sorrow in your chest

Drink with me, and if my voice gets hoarse
From time to time as I sing
It's not that I'm crying because she cheated on me
I know a man shouldn't cry

If the grasses could talk
That pampa would tell you
How much I loved her
With what fever I adored her
How many times on my knees

Trembling, I knelt
Under the leafless tree where one day I kissed her
And today, seeing her debased
Surrendered to other arms
It was a stab in the back for me

And I blinded myself with jealousy
And I still swear to her, I can't understand
How I could restrain myself
And right there I didn't kill her

I drink and insist, have a drink with me
It's better not to talk about women
All of them, friend, pay you very badly
Today my experience can affirm it

Take my advice, don't fall in love
And if one day you happen to trip
Buck up, suffer and don't cry
For a real man shouldn't cry
If the fields could talk...
