Quem vai a um samba em Mangueira
Chorando o fino a noite inteira
Chorando a noite inteira
Sabe que o malandro canta penando
Um amor que já foi seu
Mas tão depressa perdeu
E é a mágoa dessa gente
Que sabe que essa vida não tem valor
E o samba traduz, na harmonia e na cadência
Malandro sempre foi triste sofredor
Quando a noite é de luar (Luar, luar)
Também vem pro terreiro (Terreiro, terreiro)
A Lua lá do céu (Lá do céu)
Se escutar um pandeiro (Um pandeiro)
Há no samba uma tristeza (Tristeza, tristeza)
Que não posso cantar (Cantar, cantar)
É a própria natureza
Que quis dar ao malandro
A graça de entender
O que o samba quer dizer
Quem vai a um samba em Mangueira
