Dez horas da noite
Na rua deserta
A preta mercando
Parece um lamento
Ê o abará
Na sua gamela
Tem molho e cheiroso
Pimenta da costa
Tem acarajé
Ô acarajé é cor
Ô la lá io
Vem benzer
Tá quentinho
Todo mundo gosta de acarajé
O trabalho que dá pra fazer que é
Todo mundo gosta de acarajé
Todo mundo gosta de abará
Ninguém quer saber o trabalho que dá
Todo mundo gosta de acarajé
O trabalho que dá pra fazer que é
Todo mundo gosta de acarajé
Todo mundo gosta de abará
Ninguém quer saber o trabalho que dá
Todo mundo gosta de abará
Todo mundo gosta de acarajé
Dez horas da noite
Na rua deserta
Quanto mais distante
Mais triste o lamento
Ê o abará
