Ponta de areia
Ponto final
Da Bahia-Minas
Estrada natural
Que ligava Minas
Ao porto do mar
Caminho de ferro
Mandaram arrancar
Velho maquinista
Com seu boné
Lembra do povo alegre
Que vinha cortejar
Maria Fumaça
Não canta mais
Para moças
Flores janelas
E quintais
Na praça vazia
Um grito, um oi
Casas esquecidas
Viúvas nos portais
