Nas areias de São Salvador
Os capitães eram filhos do mar
Pedro bala bom capoeira
Plantou bananeira de pernas pro ar...
Quando Gato pulou na roda
Tomou uma rasteira e caiu no chão.
O Professor no berimbau cantou esse refrão...
Vou girar o mundo
O mundo vou girar
Na roda de capoeira
Capitães vai jogar
Hoje tem festa no trapiche
Dona Aninha vai ta lá
Alegria dos meninos
É ver Dora canta...
Canta Dora
Pros Capitães jogar.
Eram os donos da Bahia
A polícia não tinha como controlar
A burguesia tremia e corria
Sentia no bolso e a maldade no olhar.
Capitães da Areia ,
Capitães do Mar ,
Capitães da Bahia,
Capoeira vai jogar.
