"Quando eu vim lá da África,
Fui vendido no mercado branco,
Simplesmente uma carga,
Negociada no mercado branco,
Eh brother, eh brother, eh brother
Por que tudo é assim?
Se um cara sai da linha,
Dizem: entra numa lista negra,
Se o negrão é bom sujeito,
Dizem: é preto com a alma branca,
Se um cara é camelô,
Então é do mercado negro,
Eh brother, eh brother, eh brother
Tudo permanece assim.."
