Ritmohéroe
El Carnaval,
vamos, veamos los negros brincar,
que trabajo no les vamos a dar.
El Carnaval,
siéntete rey o reina del mar,
negro!, es tu única oportunidad.
El Carnaval,
Suda, embriaga, vomita tus penas,
arrastra con ritmo tus cadenas,
burla tres días de duras faenas.
El Carnaval
desfigúrate, haz gozar,
que en Semana Santa
la cruz vas a llevar.
