Full lyrics

Eu trabalhei todo dia, o ano inteiro

Para conseguir dinheiro, quero me casar

Ela pediu, geladeira e enceradeira

Televisão colorida e eu não posso dar


Esta menina é da minha confiança

Vou abri uma poupança no nome desta donzela

Não gasto nada estou juntando a minha grana

E o que ganho na semana boto na poupança dela


É na poupança dela, é na poupança dela,

O que ganho na semana boto na poupança dela


Mudei de vida agora sou operário

Ganho mais de um salário, já comprei televisão

Comprei fogão e um jogo de panela

E o resto que sobrou botei na poupança dela


Na minha casa eu já fiz decoração

Botei tapete no chão e comprei cortina amarela

Fui a boutique para comprar suas roupas

Mais a grana estava pouca e mexi na poupança dela


É na poupança dela, é na poupança dela,

A grana estava pouca e eu mexi na poupança dela

Translation

I worked every day, the whole year

To get money, I want to get married

She asked for a refrigerator and a floor polisher

Color television and I can't give it to her


This girl is my trust

I'm going to open a savings account in this maiden's name

I don't spend anything, I'm saving my money

And what I earn in the week I put in her savings account


It's in her savings account, it's in her savings account,

What I earn in the week I put in her savings account


I changed my life, now I'm a factory worker

I earn more than one salary, I already bought a television

I bought a stove and a set of pans

And the rest that was left over I put in her savings account


In my house I already did decoration

I put a rug on the floor and bought a yellow curtain

I went to the boutique to buy her clothes

But the money was little and I touched her savings account


It's in her savings account, it's in her savings account,

The money was little and I touched her savings account
