lyrics

Mamãe era ganhadeira
Minha avó, amancebada
Trabalhava na lapinha
Enrolando linha
Trabalhava na lapinha
Enrolando linha
De algodão

Canoa, canoa, o mangue
Lata d'água na cabeça
Vem descendo o rio abaixo

Gamboa, cairú, curuzú
Dia e noite, noite e dia
Sua sina é sua rotina

No vai e vem, no vem e vai
Do mangue pro cais
Do vem e vai pro vai e vem
Ninando neném

Minha tia marisqueira
Pra dançar subia a saia
Quebrava suas cadeiras
Lá na praça ou lá na feira
Quebrava suas cadeiras
Preta linda da ribeira e vadiar

Pedia para são benedito
Para nunca faltar farinha
No prato de sua filhinha

No vai e vem, no vem e vai
Do mangue pro cais
Do vem e vai pro vai e vem
Ninando neném

A ganhadera de cairú
A ganhadera de cairú
