Full lyrics
Eu agora tou viúva
Tou querendo me casar
Com um cabra tutanhudo
Bom pra trabalhar
Que seja carinhoso
E não me chame de sujeita
O resto a gente ajeita} bis
Ai, ai, me arrasta caboclinho
Depois do arrasta-pé
Nós queima o pé no caminho } bis
Quem pediu a minha mão
Foi o Zé, disse a Raque
Eu botei umas condição
Que eu nem sei se o Zeca quer
A gente mora longe
Pois sua mãe não é direita
O resto a gente ajeita } bis
Convidei o pistoleiro
Da Serra do Kim com K
O cabra era zanôio
Ignorante e sarará
Falou: quero a metade
Pra dizer essa impelêita
O resto a gente ajeita} bis
Translation
I am now a widow
I want to get married
With a sturdy cabra
Good for working
Who is affectionate
And doesn't call me a mere woman
The rest we'll sort out }bis
Oh, oh, drag me, caboclinho
After the arrasta-pé
We'll burn our feet on the path }bis
Who asked for my hand
It was Zé, Raque said
I set some conditions
That I don't even know if Zeca wants
We live far away
Because his mother is not decent
The rest we'll sort out }bis
I invited the gunman
From Serra do Kim com K
The cabra was cross-eyed
Ignorant and red-haired
He said: I want half
To accept this proposition
The rest we'll sort out }bis
