Zeca Violeiro não fazia o que queria tinha medo de morrer
Zeca Violeiro não fazia o que queria tinha medo de morrer
O seu irmão cabra macho forasteiro
Tomou três tiros no peito porque sabia viver
Zeca sabia todo mundo morre um dia
Quase sempre ele dizia:
Antes todos do que eu
Zeca Violeiro, Zeca Violeiro, Zeca Violeiro
Ôlelê, Zeca Violeiro
Zeca Violeiro não fazia o que queria tinha medo de morrer
Zeca Violeiro não fazia o que queria tinha medo de morrer
Zeca morava dentro de um carro forte
Não brincava com a sorte
queria sobreviver
se alimentava na base do natural
E como era prevenido
Tinha um quarto no hospital
Zeca Violeiro, Zeca Violeiro, Zeca Violeiro
Ôlelê, Zeca Violeiro
Zeca violeiro não fazia o que queria tinha medo de morrer
Zeca violeiro não fazia o que queria tinha medo de morrer
Morreu juiz, prostituta, vagabundo
Zeca sozinho no mundo aprendeu sua lição
Das mortes todas a de Zeca foi a pior
Porque Zeca morreu de solidão )....3x
Zeca Violeiro, Zeca Violeiro, Zeca Violeiro
Ôlelê, Zeca Violeiro
Zeca violeiro não fazia o que queria tinha medo de morrer
Zeca violeiro não fazia o que queria tinha medo de morrer
Zeca violeiro não fazia o que queria tinha medo de morrer
Zeca violeiro não fazia o que queria tinha medo de morrer
Zeca violeiro não fazia o que queria tinha medo de morrer
Zeca violeiro não fazia o que queria tinha medo de morrer
Translation
Zeca Violeiro didn't do what he wanted, he was afraid to die
Zeca Violeiro didn't do what he wanted, he was afraid to die
His brother, a tough, outsider guy
Took three shots to the chest because he knew how to live
Zeca knew everyone dies one day
He almost always said:
Better everyone than me
Zeca Violeiro, Zeca Violeiro, Zeca Violeiro
Ôlelê, Zeca Violeiro
Zeca Violeiro didn't do what he wanted, he was afraid to die
Zeca Violeiro didn't do what he wanted, he was afraid to die
Zeca lived inside a safe
Didn't play with fate
He wanted to survive
He fed himself on the basics of nature
And as he was cautious
He had a room in the hospital
Zeca Violeiro, Zeca Violeiro, Zeca Violeiro
Ôlelê, Zeca Violeiro
Zeca Violeiro didn't do what he wanted, he was afraid to die
Zeca Violeiro didn't do what he wanted, he was afraid to die
A judge, a prostitute, a bum died
Zeca alone in the world learned his lesson
Of all the deaths, Zeca's was the worst
Because Zeca died of loneliness )....3x
Zeca Violeiro, Zeca Violeiro, Zeca Violeiro
Ôlelê, Zeca Violeiro
Zeca Violeiro didn't do what he wanted, he was afraid to die
Zeca Violeiro didn't do what he wanted, he was afraid to die
Zeca Violeiro didn't do what he wanted, he was afraid to die
Zeca Violeiro didn't do what he wanted, he was afraid to die
Zeca Violeiro didn't do what he wanted, he was afraid to die
Zeca Violeiro didn't do what he wanted, he was afraid to die
