No meu tempo de menino
Eu não passei vida boa
Não freqüentava a escola
Só porque a toa
Mas para não perder meu tempo
Eu ficava na esquina
No jogo de cara e coroa
Cara e coroa, Cara e coroa
Cara e coroa, Cara e coroa
Naquele tempo existia
Derreis vintém e tostão
Eu soltava papagaio
E jogava o meu pião
No domingo de manha
La no sitio da mangueira
Eu caçava passarinho
Armado de balinheira
Balinheira, balinheira
Balinheira, balinheira
Eu que fui menino pobre
E me criei na estrada
Carreguei frete na feira
Joguei lebre na calçada
Levei bilhete
Do rapaz pra namorar
Só não fui guia de cego
Ai ai, oi oi
Mais fui craque na pelada
Na pelada, na pelada
Na pelada, na pelada
Na pelada, na pelada
