Certa vez, alguém me perguntou,
Porque amo tanto a terra onde nasci,
Então com a voz que Deus me deu,
Com esta canção, respondi :
Eu amo São Paulo,
Da terra vermelha e boa,
Molhada pela garoa,
E de ouro verde vestida,
Eu amo São Paulo,
Das grã-finas, nas boates,
Dos Barões, em Cadillacs,
Desfilando na avenida.
Eu amo São Paulo,
Do Corintians, tradição,
Do Palmeiras coração,
Do futebol brasileiro,
Eu amo o São Paulo,
Cada jogo é uma lição,
No Brasil ou no estrangeiro !
Eu amo São Paulo,
Com seus bairros proletários,
Onde vivem operários,
Gigantes da produção,
São Paulo, meu São Paulo,
Pelo teu aniversário,
Pelo Quarto Centenário,
Te ofereço esta canção,
Esta canção...
