Eu vou rodar todo planeta
Com a força da minha baqueta
É folia é maracatu
É rei coroado
É bandeira, é fita
Vestido de chita
Estrela na testa
O sagrado e o profano
Na mesma festa
Eu sinto o umbigo do mundo
E vejo o semba girar
Jurema, calunga, marungo
Quem é o rei desse lugar?
Por todos os cantos do mundo
Eu vejo o semba girar
Caboclo, cachaça, marujo
Quem é o rei desse lugar?
Eu vou rodar todo planeta
Com a força da minha baqueta
Entre minas e pernambuco
A mesma oração
“Velho chico” une
Pandeiro zabumba e patangome
O barro, o sertão, o coração da gente
Eu sinto o umbigo do mundo
E vejo o semba girar
Jurema, calunga, marungo
Quem é o rei desse lugar?
Por todos os cantos do mundo
Eu vejo o semba girar
Caboclo, cachaça, marujo
Quem é o rei desse lugar?
