The House I Lived In | The Weekly Letra

Here is a tangos let and a video of Carmen Ledesma dancing tientos on Canal Sur:

Tangos
Traditional

La casita donde yo habitaba
como era de polvito y arena
el vientecito se la llevaba

The house I lived in
as it was made of dust and sand
it was carried off by the wind

You can hear Mari Peña sing it (as Carmen Ledesma dances) at 8:30 in the video below:

She sings this letra about 7:45.

You can hear Manuel Torre (also known as Manuel Torres) sing today’s letra here, and Rafael Romero sing it por tientos here.
