Olha menino mandado
Deixe a viola de lado
Vai arranjar um trabalho
Que é final de mês
Deixe o pandeiro guardado
Vai levantar um trocado
Veste esse terno mofado
Que agora é sua vez
De ficar engravatado
Pra agradar o freguês
Deixe esse samba parado
Isso é coisa do passado
Você é um homem casado
Agora é sua vez
De ser crucificado
Pra sustentar nós três
Não que eu queira ao meu lado
Um cabra tão engomado
Mas essa de ser enrolado
E nada ter de comer
Não pode ser, meu amado
Algo se tem de fazer
São onze horas, safado
E você ainda deitado
Quem passa a noite mamado
Pede que chegue a vez
De acordar enjaulado
Vai ter que sambar no xadrez
