Olha o meu pagode aí
O meu pagode é do velho batuqueiro
Que já cantou muito samba
Frequentou vários terreiros
Eu já disse
Olha o meu pagode aí
O meu pagode é do velho batuqueiro
Que já cantou muito samba
Frequentou vários terreiros
Quando eu pego na minha viola
Cantando meu samba eu falo o que sinto
Meus companheiros de bar
Sabem que a verdade eu falo e não minto
Olha o meu pagode aí...
Já morei lá no catete
Fui vizinho do presidente
Hoje canto em mangueira
Lugar que tem boa gente
Olha o meu pagode aí...
Outro dia eu fui ao samba
Lá na casa do turi-turé
O pagode tava bom
Tinha pouco homem e muita mulher
Olha o meu pagode aí...
