Favela Lyrics by O Rappa

Lado B Lado A

1999

Vá dizer pra ela que o curral do samba é a passarela
Vá dizer pra ela que o Rio de Janeiro todo é uma favela
Senhor, Candeia, Noel, Cartola, Adoniran
Vá dizer pra ela que o rio de janeiro todo é uma favela
Vá dizer pra ela que o som que eu faço vem lá da favela

Me vêm na memória as rodas de samba
É batuque na palma da mão
Roda de samba de bamba

Velha guarda, Portela
Velha guarda, Mangueira
Viola, Jamelão

Vá dizer pra ela que o curral do samba é a passarela
Vá dizer pra ela que o rio de janeiro todo é uma favela
De Madureira à Sepetiba, passando por Santa Cruz
Bate bola de bixiga de boi
Bate bola de sebo de bixiga de boi
É nos terreiros do samba
Que a molecada cresce e ama sua escola
E faz as mãos e os pés sangrar

Quando os anos passam
Quando ele se emociona
De ver sua escola ganhar
