Full lyrics

Toda história que se conta

Tem mentira dentro

Tem valente que não é valente

Tem tristeza que não leva a gente

Tem amor que acaba de repente

Tem chão verde que não dá semente


Eita mineiro ê

Eita mineiro á

Venha cá que eu trago história

Venha cá se arrepiar

Venha cá

Venha cá

Venha cá que eu trago história

Venha cá se arrepiar


Toda mentira que se conta

Tem verdade dentro

Tem covarde que um dia é valente

Tem tristeza funda que só cacimba

Tem amor que acaba de repente

Até chão seco um dia dá semente

Translation

Every story that is told

Has a lie inside

There's a brave man who isn't brave

There's a sadness that doesn't take us away

There's love that ends suddenly

There's green ground that doesn't give seed


Hey miner, hey

Hey miner, ah

Come here, I'll bring you a story

Come here to get goosebumps

Come here

Come here

Come here, I'll bring you a story

Come here to get goosebumps


Every lie that is told

Has truth inside

There's a coward who one day is brave

There's a deep sadness that only a well can hold

There's love that ends suddenly

Even dry ground one day gives seed
