Quero água de beber
Pra matar a minha sede
Vou jogar a capoeira
Vou gingar diversas vezes
Mestre bimba me ensinou
De maneira similar
Hoje em dia a minha sina
Capoeira é jogar
Capoeira é mandinga
Não é brincadeira
Ginga que eu quero ver
Capoeira é africana
E corre nas veias
Ginga que eu quero ver
Ho! Zum, zum, zum
Capoeira de rua matou um
Tem que ter raça
Pra ser capoeira
Ginga que eu quero ver
Tem que ter sangue de zumbi nas veias
Ginga que eu quero ver
Ô zum zum zum zum
Capoeira de rua matou um
Capoeira ancestral de valor e de swing
Capoeira de luter king
Capoeira ancestral da barriga da mazela
Capoeira de nelson mandela
Capoeira é viramundo, capoeira é quartel
Capoeira de samoura machel
