No comboio descendente
Vinha tudo à gargalhada.
Uns por verem rir os outros
E outros sem ser por nada
No comboio descendente
De Queluz à Cruz Quebrada...
No comboio descendente
Vinham todos à janela
Uns calados para os outros
E outros a dar-lhes trela
No comboio descendente
De Cruz Quebrada a Palmela...
No comboio descendente
Mas que grande reinação!
Uns dormnindo, outros com sono,
E outros nem sim nem não
No comboio descendente
De Palmela a Portimão
