Ôba, ôba, ôba Charles
Como é que é
My friend Charles
Como vão as coisas Charles?
Charles, Anjo 45
Protetor dos fracos
E dos oprimidos
Robin Hood dos morros
Rei da malandragem
Um homem de verdade
Com muita coragem
Só porque um dia
Charles marcou bobeira
Foi sem querer tirar férias
Numa colônia penal...
Então os malandros otários
Deitaram na sopa
E uma tremenda bagunça
o nosso morro virou
Pois o morro que era do céu
Sem o nosso Charles
Um inferno virou...
Mas Deus é justo
E verdadeiro,
E antes de acabar as férias
Nosso Charles vai voltar
Paz alegria geral
Todo morro vai sambar
antecipando o carnaval
Vai ter batucada
Uma missa em ação de graças
Vai ter feijoada
Whisky com cerveja
E outras milongas mais...
Muitas queima de fogos
E saraivada de balas.
Pro ar,
Pra quando nosso Charles,
Voltar...
E o povo inteiro feliz
Assim vai cantar...
Ôba, ôba, ôba Charles
Como é que é
My friend Charles
Como vão as coisas Charles?
