O jangadeiro vai ganhar a vida
No alto mar
Vai sem saber se volta
Mas tem que a vida ganhar
a vida ganhar...
Quando ele vem voltando na beira da praia
Fica logo assim de gente pra peixe comprar
Peixe a cem mil réis o quilo ninguém quer pagar
Mas todos quer peixe bonito
No preço do fiscal
Que nunca enfrentou
Temporal...
Mas ele enfrenta tudo porque tem zezinho
Filho de estimação que quer aprender ler
Ver o filho estudando é seu maior prazer
É a razão de ir pra o mar
Sem medo de morrer
Pra um pescador
Zé não sei...
Nunca temeu ao mar mas sempre o respeitou
Por viver sempre no mar ele tem amor
Tem orgulho do que é mas o que ele não quer
É que seu filho pra viver
Tenha que enfrentar o mar
Tenha que vim ser
Pescador...
