Delegado Chico Palha

Chico Palha delegate
Without soul, without heart
Doesn't want samba or curimba
In his jurisdiction

He didn't arrest
Just beat

He was a very strong man
With a violent temper
Ended the party with a fight
Even broke the instruments

He didn't arrest
Just beat

The malandros from Portela
From Serrinha and Congonha
To him were scoundrels
And the women shameless

He didn't arrest
Just beat

Curimba gained a terreiro
Samba gained a school
He was expelled from the police
Lived begging for alms
