Carioca? Não, eu nasci em campos
É, na usina barcelos, fica à menos de uma hora da cidade
Terra da cana de açúcar, da goiabada
Meu rumo foi traçado na palma de uma palmeira
Ai, ai, ai, na beira do paraíba do sul, do sul
Brinquei nos canaviais
Brinquei nos canaviais
Sou cana caiana, sou cana caiana
Sou nega cigana, dona dos canaviais.
Cintura fina, pé de moleque
Cheiro a doce de coco
Feito no tacho dourado
Cheiro a doce de coco
Feito no tacho dourado
Pele macia, cor de canela
Escrava, cigana, rainha,
Melaço de beijo roubado
Escrava, cigana, rainha
Melaço de beijo roubado
Sou ouro negro de campos, dona dos canaviais
Sou ouro negro de campos, dona dos canaviais
Brinquei nos canaviais
Brinquei nos canaviais
Brinquei nos canaviais
Brinquei nos canaviais
Cintura fina, pé de moleque
Cheiro a doce de coco
Feito no tacho dourado
Pele macia, cor de canela
Escrava, cigana, rainha,
Melaço de beijo roubado
Sou ouro negro de campos, dona dos canaviais
Sou ouro negro de campos, dona dos canaviais
Brinquei nos canaviais
Brinquei nos canaviais
Brinquei nos canaviais
Brinquei nos canaviais
Sou ouro negro de campos, dona dos canaviais
Sou ouro negro de campos, dona dos canaviais
