O sertão está de luto
Morreu grande boiadeiro
Que cantava nas estradas
Para os amigos tropeiros
O sertão está de luto
Morreu grande boiadeiro
Não se ouve aquela voz
Que alegrava os companheiros
Choram todas as famílias
Chora o sertão inteiro
Quando passa a boiada
Falta aquele boiadeiro
Até hoje nas estradas
Pelos campos tudo é triste
Só há nuvens de poeira
Mas o canto não existe
Pelos verdes cafezais
Bem pra lá de um potreiro
Dizem que a meia-noite
Aparece o boiadeiro
Choram todas as famílias
Chora o sertão inteiro
Quando passa a boiada
Falta aquele boiadeiro
