Uma menina igual a mil
Que não está nem aí
Tivesse a vida pra escolher
E era talvez ser distraída
O que ela mais queria ser
Ah, se eu pudesse não cantar
Esta absurda melodia
Pra uma menina distraída
Uma menina igual a mil
Do Morro do Tuiuti
Uma menina igual a mil
Que não está nem aí
Tivesse a vida pra escolher
E era talvez ser distraída
O que ela mais queria ser
Ah, se eu pudesse não cantar
Esta absurda melodia
Pra uma criança assim caída
Uma menina do Brasil
Que não está nem aí
Uma menina igual a mil
Do Morro do Tuiuti
