Impressive how for me places around or in Greece make very pleasurable sounds in music apparently not even making much effort. See, clicked your random video, enjoyed. There's something with the Mediterranean and West/South/Central Asia (circa up to the 73rd meridian east) that has really awesome music.
But I don't know anything of what's written there, in the lyrics (?), sadly.

Ouzo, morphine, and hashish—oh, the misery!—
I drank to try and forget,
but I—poor soul—could not succeed;
I’m on the verge of losing my mind.

What kind of spell did you cast on me—oh, the misery!—
to drive me completely out of my senses?
You’ve taken every last penny I had,
and yet, it’s still not enough for you.

Since you love someone else—oh, the misery!—
what do you want with me now?
I don’t have a single cent left
to give to you.

I’ve found a gentleman—oh, the misery!—
who truly loves me;
he’s a well-known worker,
and he has a real heart in his chest.

Rebetiko songs especially in the 1910s-1940s used to mention drugs like hash, heroin and morphine often because I guess they were quite popular in the underground of big cities and the subculture where Rebetes made and sang these songs

Rebetiko songs that mentioned drugs, hashish dens, prison life and the underworld were banned in Greece in 1936-1941 and in 1947-1974

The singer of this song was a Greek Jewish woman that must be known here in general from her songs

I think it's the bouzouki which in my opinion has a very nice sound and I have thought of trying to learn how to play it before but it must be difficult, especially the old style ones with 3 strings, there are others with 4 up to 8 strings which must be much easier to play

This is Vasilis Tsitsanis, one of the most known bouzouki players here if not the most known, sadly there is no other version of this particular song from him, he died less than a year after this video was shot

This is from a Belgian documentary in 1963 showing Vamvakaris and Tsitsanis respectively

I thought ex Tsitsanis was much more modest in everyday life than Vamvakaris just by their looks on videos while singing but I am reading that even though Vamvakaris came from the underworld of Piraeus and the hashish dens, he maintained a humble and unpretentious behavior while Tsitsanis was proud of his genius for bringing a refined and melodic approach that brought rebetiko out of the underground and into mainstream Greek culture (laiko) and he was also protective of his work

Laiko dominated the next decades while rebetiko was kind left behind but not entirely forgotten
