O fado, canção bizarra
Pôs a samarra
Todo trecheiro
E lá foi com a guitarra
Até ao Rio de Janeiro.
Fez-se um fadista atrevido
Tão destemido
E de tal marca
Que até já é conhedico
P'lo fadistão da Fuzarca.
Com sambinhas
E modinhas
Abacate
Vitamate
Guaraná
Maracujá
E caruru.
Com cocada
Batucada
Para ti
Abacaxi
E goiabada
O fado é bom p'ra xuxu.
Um portuguesinho de raça
Bebe cachaça
Come pipoca
E no catete até passa
Por cidadão carioca.
Às vezes vai à favela
Calça chinela
Todo se bamba...
E o fado canção singela
Agora é todo do samba.
