Full lyrics

Eu tenho um amigo americano do norte

Eu sou americano do sul


Ele gosta de lagosta

Eu gosto de sururu

Ele adora Nova York

E eu adoro Aracajú


É a nossa amizade

É independente

Ele com o seu povo

E eu aqui com a minha gente

O meu amigo é rico

De capital e saber

Eu também sou rico

Comecei a desenvolver

Translation

I have a North American friend

I am a South American


He likes lobster

I like mussels

He loves New York

And I love Aracaju


It's our friendship

It's independent

He with his people

And I here with my people

My friend is rich

In capital and knowledge

I am also rich

I started to develop
