Full lyrics
Beira mar beira do rio
Ê ê beira mar
Cheguei agora
Beira mar beira do rio
Ê ê beira mar
Olha que eu vou-me embora
Ê ê beira mar
Baiana quem te conhece
De você nunca faz pouco
Pois não é só na cocada
Que a baiana bota coco
Carioca canta samba
Paulista planta café
Na Bahia tem petróleo
Tem cacau e tem candomblé
Translation
Seashore, riverbank
Hey hey seashore
I just arrived
Seashore, riverbank
Hey hey seashore
Look, I'm leaving now
Hey hey seashore
Baiana, whoever knows you
Never underestimates you
Because it's not just in cocada
That the Baiana puts coconut
Carioca sings samba
Paulista plants coffee
In Bahia there's oil
There's cocoa and there's Candomblé
