Por que será, por que será?
Que hoje o negro não veio trabalhar
(Refrão)
Já correu notícia
Houve morte em palmares
Morreu o negro chamado
Gangazumba
Já correu notícia
Houve morte em palmares
Mataram o negro chamado
Gangazumba
(Refrão)
Naquele tempo não existia
A
Princesa
Não havia pão na mesa
Só tinha o canavial
Era o suor, era o sangue
Derramado
Era o trabalho do negro
Dia e noite sem parar
(Refrão)
E hoje em dia
Depois do canavial
Tem o relógio de ponto
Que não para de marcar
E se o negro tá doente
E não consegue chegar
Seu patrão ou sinhozinho
Continua a perguntar
(Refrão)
