Full lyrics
Eu tava com a Felomena
Ela quis se refrescar
O calor tava malvado
Ninguém podia agüentar
Ela disse meu Lundru
Nós vamos se balançar
A rede veia como foi fogo
Foi com nois dois pra lá e pra cá
Começou a fazer vento com nois dois a palestrar
Filomena ficou beba de tanto se balançar
Eu vi o punho de rede começar a se quebrar
A rede veia comeu foi fogo
Foi com nois dois pra lá e pra cá
A rede tava rasgada e eu tive a impressão
Que com tanto balançado nois terminava no chão
Mas Filomena me disse, meu véio vem mais pra cá
A rede veia como foi fogo
Foi com nois dois pra lá e pra cá
Translation
I was with Felomena
She wanted to cool off
The heat was wicked
No one could stand it
She said my Lundru
We're going to swing
The old hammock, how it was on fire
It went with the two of us back and forth
It started to make wind with the two of us chatting
Filomena got dizzy from swinging so much
I saw the hammock's rope start to break
The old hammock, how it was on fire
It went with the two of us back and forth
The hammock was torn and I had the impression
That with so much swinging we would end up on the ground
But Filomena told me, my old man, come closer
The old hammock, how it was on fire
It went with the two of us back and forth
