INTRO:  Dijo una voz popular;
        ¿Quién me presta una escalera    para subir al madero
        para quitarle los clavos         a Jesus el Nazareno.
VOZ:  Oh, la saeta al cantar     al Cristo de los gitanos
      siempre con sangre en las manos siempre por desenclavar.
      Cantar del pueG#mblo andaluz    G#m7que todas las prF#imaveras 
      anda pidiendE4o esEcaleras    MI7para subir a lD#a cruz.
      Cantar de la G#m7tierra mia     que echF#7a flores
      al Jesus de E4la Eagonia       MI7y es la F#7fe de mis D#mayores.
GUITARRA: como voz
CAMBIO : Hoy no erG#m7es tu mi cantar    no puedF#4o cantar F#ni quiero 
     F#7a ese Jesus del E4madeEro      MI7sino al que anduvo en lD#a mar.
