O mandacaru secou
O agave e a mancambira
Que a folha virou imbira
Maniçoba esturricou
Aveloz amarelou
Lá não tem mais nada verde
Gado com fome e com sede
Dê um jeito meu senhor
Lá secou meu senhor
Lá secou meu senhor
Bahia de todos os santos
Pernambuco e seridó
Em muitos e muitos outros cantos
Ceará e maceió
É a seca nordestina
Paraíba masculina
Sempre sempre é a pior
E o moxotó é de fazer dó
E o moxotó é de fazer dó
Seu doutor tá tudo seco
Baxio tabuleiro e chá
Lá morreu tudo de sede
Cururu caçote e rã
Lá não tem mais nada verde
Nem mesmo o maracanã
Só resta o símbolo da seca
A cigarra e acauã
Acauã acauã
