Amo tanto e de tanto amar
Acho que ela é bonita
Tem um olho sempre a boiar
E outro que agita
Tem um olho que não está
Meus olhares evita
E outro olho a me arregalar
Sua pepita
A metade do seu olhar
Está chamando pra luta, aflita
E metade quer madrugar
Na bodeguita
Se os seus olhos eu for cantar
Um seu olho me atura
E outro olho vai desmanchar
Toda a pintura
Ela pode rodopiar
E mudar de figura
A paloma do seu mirar
Virar miúra
É na soma do seu olhar
Que eu vou me conhecer inteiro
Se nasci pra enfrentar o mar
Ou faroleiro
Amo tanto e de tanto amar
Acho que ela acredita
Tem um olho a pestanejar
E outro me fita
Suas pernas vão me enroscar
Num balé esquisito
Seus dois olhos vão se encontrar
No infinito
Amo tanto e de tanto amar
Em Manágua temos um chico
Já pensamos em nos casar
Em Porto Rico
