(Estribilho)
E olha o bambo de bambu, bambu
E olha o bambo de bambu, bambu-lê-lê
E olha o bambo de bambu, bambu-lá-lá
Eu quero ver dizer 3 vezes bambu-lê, bambu-lá-lá
Fui a um banquete na casa do zé pequeno
A mesa tava no sereno
P'rá todo mundo cabê
Tinha de toda qualidade de talher
Tinha mais home que muié
Mas só não tinha o que comer (bambu)
(Estribilho)
E no tal banquete, dito cujo, referido
Mulher que não tinha marido
Não passou aperto não
Pois as danada para não morrer de fome
Cada qual comeu seu home
Não tiveram indigestão (bambu)
(Estribilho)
Conheço um home que tem 17 filho
Que pôs tudo no desvio
P'rá polícia empregá
A mulher dele de beleza ainda promete
Dar à luz a 17
P'rá depois então parar (bambu)
(Estribilho)(2x)
