Sertaneja se eu pudesse
Se papai do céu me desse
O espaço pra voar
Eu corria a natureza
E acabava com a tristeza
Só pra não te ver chorar
Na ilusão desse poema
Eu roubava um diadema
Lá do céu pra te ofertar
E onde a fonte murmureja
Eu erguia tua igreja
Dentro dela teu altar
Sertaneja
Porque choras quando eu canto?
Sertaneja
Se esse canto é todo teu
Sertaneja
Pra secar os teus olhinhos
Vai ouvir os passarinhos
Que cantam mais do que eu
A tristeza do meu pranto
É mais triste quando eu canto
A canção que eu te escrevi
E os teus olhos neste instante
Brilham mais que a mais brilhante
Das estrelas que eu já vi
Sertaneja, vou-me embora
A saudade vem agora
Alegria vem depois
Vou subir por essas serras
Construir lá em outras terras
Um ranchinho pra nós dois
