Lalaia...lalaiah...laiala
Lalaia...lalaiah....laia.laia...laia...
Tudo certo ele tinha uns trocados no bolso
Tinha feito um bacana na noite passada
Acendeu uma vela pros seus orixás
Beijou sua velha e foi trabalhar
Laia...Laia...Lalaiala....
La vem Negro Paulo descendo a ladeira
Cantando samba bonito
Depois tinha pagode era sexta-feira
Com a sua Tereza ia namorar
A sua Tereza era campeã
Negro Paulo cansado de esperar ah.ah...
Tirou um cigarro do bolso e acendeu
Seis da Tarde jogou uma água de cheiro no corpo
Só pra tirar o suor
Pegou uma carona até o Bexiga
Na viraa da noite ele morreu
Negro Paulo um velho malandro
Um grande amigo meu, na virada da noite
Dançou...Sua nega Tereza então chorou..
No seu sangue espalhado pelo chão
Uma bala acertou...seu coração...
