No mercado da ribeira

há um romance de amor

entre a rita que é peixeira
E o chico que é pescador
Sabem todos os que lá vão

Que a rita gosta do chico

Só a mãe dela é que não 

Consente no namorico


Quando ele passa por ela

Ela sorri descarada

Porém o chico à cautela

não dá trela nem diz nada


Que a mãe dela quando calha

Ao ver que o chico se abeira

Por dar cá aquela palha

Faz tremer toda a ribeira


namoram de manhãzinha

e da forma mais diversa

dois caixotes de sardinha

São dois dedos de conversa


E há quem diga à boca cheia

que depois de tanta fita

O chico de volta e meia

Prega dois beijos na rita


Quando ele passa por ela

Ela sorri descarada

Porém o chico à cautela

Não dá trela nem diz nada


Que a mãe dela quando calha

Ao ver que o chico se abeira

por dar cá aquela palha

Faz tremer toda a ribeira
