Tendinha pra ser tendinha
Tem que vender mortadela
Pode ter cachaça do litro
Cigarro a varejo e vela
Cravo, pimenta e cuminho
Cerveja preta com ovo e canela
Pra fazer uma boa gemada
E deixar vagabundo naquela
Tendinha pra ser tendinha
Tem que vender mortadela
Parede pintada de verde
E de rosa a janela
Um São Jorge iluminado
Protegendo a galera
Com muitas mulheres bonitas
Velhas, novas e donzelas
Tendinha pra ser tendinha
Tem que vender mortadela
Na tendinha do Zé Careca
Bem lá dentro da favela
Você encontra de tudo
Na bandeja e na tigela
Tem sardinha bem fritinha
Mocotó, caldo verde e moela
Tendinha pra ser tendinha
Tem que vender mortadela
