Full lyrics
E chinelo curado deixei meu gado
Medo dá seco que viu mandar
Quem viu de notar, quem viu de notar
Quem viu de notar
Sai da minha terra foi pra capital
E deixa Avenida para o eleitoral
Para o eleitoral, para o eleitoral
Para o eleitoral
Mas aqui não tem casa
Tem gente plantar pra gente reencontrar
Pra gente reencontrar, pra gente reencontrar
Pra gente reencontrar
Eu pensei que minha vida fosse melhoria
Mas suba goiabinha no canavial
No canavial, no canavial
No canavial
Cheguei o ranchinho bombeia pensar
Chama minha velha e comecei a falar
Pego o meu chumbinho vamos se mandar
Que eu seguir lá no Sul a boia fria
A boia fria, a boia fria
Tão pensei que um dia pudesse chorar
Igual aquilo no Sul sempre de voltar
Perdeu meu padrão me sinto de pagar
Ninguém mais que pena eu quero tomar
Eu quero tomar, eu quero tomar
Translation
And healed flip-flops, I left my cattle
Fear gives the dry one who saw command
Who saw to notice, who saw to notice
Who saw to notice
He left my land and went to the capital
And leaves Avenida for the electoral
For the electoral, for the electoral
For the electoral
But here there is no house
There are people planting for us to meet again
For us to meet again, for us to meet again
For us to meet again
I thought my life would be better
But climb little guava in the sugarcane field
In the sugarcane field, in the sugarcane field
In the sugarcane field
I arrived at the little ranch, pumping to think
Call my old lady and I started talking
I grab my little lead, let's get out of here
That I follow there in the South the cold float
The cold float, the cold float
I thought that one day I could cry
Like that in the South always to return
Lost my standard, I feel like paying
No one else what a pity I want to take
I want to take, I want to take
