Num bate coxa grongueiro
Onde tem gaita e pandeiro
Sou taura loco de bueno
Metido a sebo e carancho
Gosto d'um baile de rancho
Cheirando a garra e mangueira
De atropelar Lua cheia
Em retorcida e fandango
Meu cantochão é cordeona
Que se desdoma escorada
Conforme a volta da armada
E o coração do gaiteiro
Quem amadrinha é o pandeiro
Mas quem dá forma pro verso
É o contracanto do resto
Com alma de bochincheiro
Atraca, pandeiro véio
Que a farra mal começou
E o pealo se acomodou
Nos olhos d'uma morena
Que anda loca de cheia
No golpe da oito soco
Fincando o facão no toco
Flor de caborteira
Nos quatro cantos da tasca
À meia luz do bailongo
A concertina dá o troco
Abrindo "os tarro" e golpe
E no abre e fecha do fole
Quando o pandeiro se lava
Até o gaiteiro se embala
Tocando a trote e galope
Enquanto vou me entretendo
No toque da botoneira
A alma aperta a peiteira
No resmungar da chorona
Me agarro co'as redomonas
E, pouco importa o sinuelo
Pra me tirar do rodeio
Só terminando com a zona
