Full lyrics

A velha minha sogra vive aborrecida

Porque não dou boa vida pra minha mulher

Eu sei que ela quer que eu vá trabalhar

E o diabo é quem vai lá ela trabalhe se quiser


Meu sogro Zé mane trabalha noite e dia

Pra sustentar duas filhas, eu e a mulher

Pareceu mais um bebé pra completar a conta

O velho me pergunta como é que é


Como é que é

Como é que é

O meu sogro me pergunta

Como é que é

Translation

My old mother-in-law lives annoyed

Because I don't give a good life to my wife

I know she wants me to go to work

And the devil is the one who will go there, let her work if she wants


My father-in-law Zé Mane works night and day

To support two daughters, me and his wife

It seemed like another baby to complete the account

The old man asks me how it is


How is it

How is it

My father-in-law asks me

How is it
