Mal canta o galo, ainda o Sol não é nado
Monto a cavalo e vou p’ra junto do gado
E os animais, essas tais feras bravias
Com os olhos tão leais parecem dar-me os bons dias
Pampilho ao alto
Corpo firme no selim
Nunca tive um sobressalto se um toiro investe p’ra mim
Já disse um homem
Que foi toureiro afamado
Mais marradas dá a fome do que um toiro tresmalhado
Quando anoitece e o gado dorme p’lo chão
Rezo uma prece p’la alma dos que lá estão
P’ra que as searas cresçam livres da tormenta
E o mal não mate as piaras, nem os novilhos de tenta
Mas quando as cheias devastam pastos e trigo
Há miséria nas aldeias e eu vou pensando comigo
Já disse um homem que foi toureiro afamado
Mais marradas dá a fome do que um toiro tresmalhado
