Cocada preta Yoyô?
Quem quiser conhecer
O Brasil brasileiro, meu bem!
Tem que um vez ir à Bahia, sê tem
Ver o batuque assim!
Ver o Sr. Do Bonfim
Mamãezinha que morreu
Muita vez me ensinou!
Que na Bahia de Yayá, de Yoyô
Foi que o Brasil nasceu!
Zorô canjiquinha, acazá
Quingombô pra Yayá e Yoyô
A bahiana é feiticeira!
Tem todo xodó da brasileira!
Amor, que diferente que dá aqui
E eu de lá, doce amor de Yayá!
Nosso sinhô do Bonfim
Guarde uma bahiana para mim!
Canjiquinha quente, Sinhá?
