42 começamos bem!... Uma multidão, aguardando, na estação de trem
Tinha gente pendurada, até no lustre pra ver
Ele... O Homem-Borracha, o rei da bicicleta, o Diamante Negro
Leônidas... Ia chegar... [2x]
Vinha pra morar em São Paulo, jogar no tricolor
Era uma celebridade, um grande craque, tão querido
Até no chocolate, fizeram com seu apelido
O trem apitou, piuí! Leônidas... Chegou!
Saiu da estação carregado, nos braços da torcida
Cantando pela cidade, numa alegria elouquecida
Ô ô ô, agora o Diamante Negro, vai brilhar tricolor [2x]
O Homem-Borracha, o rei da bicicleta, o Diamante Negro
Ô ô ô, ô ô ô, São Paulo!
Ô ô ô, ô ô ô São Paulo
