Vai o Zé aprumado
Espalhando alegria
Tem encontro marcado
Com a sua Maria
A espera é demorada
Onde estava a Maria
Que á hora marcada
Ela não aparecia
O Zé esperava
E desesperava
Coração batia
Por não a ver
Nervoso olhava
P'ra quem passava
E a Maria
Sem aparecer
Quando a Maria chegou
Seu coração fez saltar
Então o Zé suspirou
Valeu a pena esperar
Agora vão de mãos dadas
Namorar como convém
Como nos contos de fadas
No fim tudo acaba bem
O Zé esperava
E desesperava
Coração batia
O que aconteceu?
Nervoso olhava
Pra quem passava
Por fim a Maria
Sempre apareceu
