(Há muitos e muitos anos, pelos campos de Goiás
Aconteceu esta história que eu agora vou contá)
Ele tornou assassino
E sumiu pelo sertão
Pra defender em menino
Sua mãe e seu irmão
Sua vida foi lutá
Pelas estradas sem luz
Foi obrigado a matá
Sempre na sombra da cruz
Vagando por outras terra
Deixando seu companheiro
Ele viveu pelas serra
Deste sertão brasileiro
Encontrando só na morte
Com seu legítimo irmão
Cumprindo a triste sorte
Ele morreu no sertão
