Na seca que quebra o chão
E tira a fertilidade da terra
Bebemos o suco do xique-xique
Mas a fome, no bucho, impera
Sem ter o que comer
Comemos a carne da macambeira
A única coisa que vejo no semi-árido
É homem catimbozeiro e maria-breteira
Eu quero fazer feira
Como o povo chique
Eu estou cansada de comer macambeira
Bebendo xique-xique
Quero ir pra cidade
Tentar a minha sorte
Melhor que ficar nessa barbaridade
Esperando a morte
Juro que não sei dizer
O que é pior
Desemprego na cidade grande
Ou ficar na plantação com muito suor
Eu quero fazer feira
Como o povo chique
Eu estou cansada de comer macambeira
Bebendo xique-xique
Quero ir pra cidade
Tentar a minha sorte
Melhor que ficar nessa barbaridade
Esperando a morte
Vou me embora já
Aqui não posso ficar
