Senhora que o velho
Se quer levantar
Mofina de mim
Que o ouvi escarrar
Falar e tossir
Que o ouvi escarrar
Senhora vá-se embora
Vá já para fora
senão o papão
nos há-de engolir
Morde pela calada
Cheira à cruz gamada
Anda aí à solta
Não o deixes bulir
Senhora que o velho
Se quer levantar
Dá-lhe na corneta
Até se cansar
Mofina de mim
Bem o vejo trepar
Senhora que o velho
Tem corda de sino
Se lhe dão mais corda
Vai ao alto a pino
Anda aí à solta
Não o deixes bulir.
