Sehorio pediou pro negro se abaixar
mais o negro foi negro e não se abaixou,
abençoou o pobre branco
e foi pro terreiro, na palma da mão,
e cantou:
Salve o negro nagô
Salve o negro nagô, axalá!
que a gente quer casa pra morar
senhorio parou pra pensar e se envergonhou
da maneira indiscreta
que sua cabeça pensou
pois bem antes de tudo estar aqui
nem existia o senhor
mais nem meu povo foi para o terreiro,
na palma da mão, e cantou:
Salve o negro nagô
Salve o negro nagô, axalá!
que a gente tem filhos pra criar
hoje em dia, alforia de branco
tem muito valor
pois se sente na pele
aquela nossa velha dor
pois trabalha e dá o fruto
que tanto buscou,
recomeça a batalha
pra arranja dinheiro
pro usurpador
Salve o negro nagô
Salve o negro nagô, axalá!
que a gente tem gente pra salvar
Vida de negro é dificil
Vida de negro é dificil
