A noite estava estrelada
Quando a roda se formou
A Lua veio atrasada
E o samba começou
Um tiro a pouca distância
No espaço forte ecoou
Mas ninguém deu importância
E o samba continuou
Entretanto ali bem perto
Morria de um tiro certo
Um valente muito sério
Professor dos desacatos
Ensinava aos pacatos
O rumo do cemitério
Chegou alguém apressado
Naquele samba animado
E cantando assim dizia:
No século do progresso
O revólver teve ingresso
Pra acabar com a valentia
[INTERVALO INSTRUMENTAL]
[REPETE SEGUNDA ESTROFE]
