Tenho impressa no meu rosto
e no peito, no lado oposto ao direito, uma saudade
(que saudade)
sensação de na verdade
não ter sido nem metade
daquilo que você sonhou
(que sonhou)
são caminhos, são esquemas
descaminhos e problemas
é o rochedo contra o mar
é isso aí, ê Irajá
meu samba é a única coisa que eu posso te dar
é isso aí, ê Irajá
meu samba é a única coisa que eu posso te dar
saudade
veio à sombra da mangueira
sentou na espreguiçadeira
e pegou no violão
cantou a moda do caranguejo
me estendeu a mão prum beijo
e me deu opinião
(opinião, opinião)
depois tomou um gole de abrideira
foi sumindo na poeira
para nunca mais voltar
é isso aí, ê Irajá
meu samba é a única coisa que eu posso te dar
