Xote
Aos cruzaltenses vou render minha homenagem
Daquele povo tão amigo hospitaleiro
Todo momento estou lembrando com saudade
Das gauchadas que por lá me receberam
Agradecendo aquele povo hospitaleiro
Fiz estes versos por uma recordação
Foi nos fandangos que por lá eu assisti
Ficou gravado dentro do meu coração.
Muitas morenas atraentes eu conheci
Com muitas loiras tão bonitas conversei
Tenho meu peito carregado de saudade
Mas pra rever as cruzaltenses voltarei.
Aqui distante da cidade de Cruz Alta
Este meu peito de gaúcho sente muita falta
Mas qualquer dia volto dar uma passeada
Rever de novo aquele povo camarada.
Aqueles campos florescentes não esqueço
Com a chinoca contemplei o céu anil
Linda cidade, terra de gaúcho guapo
Tu és o orgulho do meu Rio Grande do Sul.
