Full lyrics
Que infelicidade, Que infelicidade
Não casei no sertão pra me casar na cidade
Deixa de casar com Zefa
Que gosta de trabalhar
Pra me casar com Ritinha
Que não quer nem ajudar
Nada sabe fazer
Só que viver pra comer
Casei com uma mulher que só quer comer
Casei com uma mulher que só quer comer
Casei com uma mulher que só quer comer
Se nada sabe fazer
Translation
What unhappiness, What unhappiness
I didn't marry in the sertão to marry in the city
I gave up marrying Zefa
Who likes to work
To marry Ritinha
Who doesn't even want to help
Knows how to do nothing
Only wants to live to eat
I married a woman who only wants to eat
I married a woman who only wants to eat
I married a woman who only wants to eat
If she knows how to do nothing
