1977
Final de feira, legumes baratos
Meninos mulatos enrolam nos trapos
Os restos do prato que o dia-a-dia deixou pelo chão
Epa! mais vale uma xepa na boca da gente
Que o corpo doído, faminto, doente
E o amor esquecido de um coração.
(Repete tudo)
Que alegria! Panela no fogo, barriga vazia
Que coisa boa! Batata baroa, chuchu, agrião
Subiu ladeira, moleque sabido, menino feliz
E quem é que diz: no bolso furado não leva um trocado
Nem vale um tostão. Subiu ladeira, moleque...
(Repete tudo, e I)
