Pra manter a tradição
Legada pelo passado
Brilham rosas em botão
Na jaqueta do forcado
O barrete é verde esperança
De orla vermelha garrida
Deu-lhe o campino a herança
Da meia branca comprida
E de forma afiambrada
Sapatos de prateleira
E a cinta bem apertada
É posta à antiga maneira
Frente ao toiro, voz da raça
Bate as palmas firmemente
Fita de longe e com graça
Esse forcado valente
É por isso e com razão
Que canto neste meu fado
Brilham rosas em botão
Na jaqueta do forcado
