No dia que eu vim-me embora

Minha mãe chorava em ai

Minha irmã chorava em ui

E eu nem olhava pra trás

No dia que eu vim-me embora

Não teve nada de mais

Mala de couro forrada

Com pano forte e brim cáqui

Minha vó já quase morta

Minha mãe até a porta

Minha irmã até a rua

E até o porto meu pai

O qual não disse palavra

Durante todo o caminho

E quando eu me vi sozinho

Vi que não entendia nada

Nem de pro que eu ia indo

Nem dos sonhos que eu sonhava

Sentia apenas que a mala

De couro que eu carregava

Embora estando forrada

Fedia, cheirava mal

Afora isso, ia indo

Atravessando, seguindo

Nem chorando, nem sorrindo

Sozinho pra capital

Nem chorando, nem sorrindo

Sozinho pra capital
