Foi na beira do mar
Que eu vi Ogum guerrear
Ele jurou bandeira
Ele tocou clarim
Com seu exército todo
Ele lutou por mim
Menina de longe, vem cá
Vem dizer pra chover logo
Saia rodada, pé no terreiro
Hoje é dia de sambada
Lá vem a chuva que vem do sertão
O tempo lá vai se fazendo
Pedindo aos céus que não caia
Não faça, não haja
Lá vem sertão
Usando tuas marcas de rosto tão forte
Cara mascarada
Voz já sufocada
Na tua plantação não coloco a mão
Mas se chover
Hoje eu saio
Caio no buraco
Finjo ser um passo
E ando leve pelo ar
Foi na beira do mar
Que eu vi Ogum guerrear
