Tem Dendê

Nega do balaio grande que passa gingando
Faceira que não teme a sorte
Nem liga pra morte
Veio do norte ensinar capoeira, capoeira
Capoeira, capoeira
Diz que é filha de santo
De fé e que seu pai se chama Xangô
Diz que já frequentou candomblé
Na ponta do pé vem Nagô
Traz no tronco pendente um patuá
Fazendo questão pra gente ver
E afirma pra quem quiser ouvir
Que a batina do padre tem dendê
Tem dendê na batina
Tem dendê na batina
Do padre tem dendê
