Full lyrics
Eu já bebi não bebo mais, não bebo mais.
E ninguém me faz beber
Pois a bebida da gente tira o juízo,
Só nos causa prejuízo
Tira o prazer de viver
No tempo que eu vivia gostava de Rita
Eita morena bonita, mas gostava de beber
E toda a noite agente se embriagava
E la em casa o pau cantava, e era aquele fuzuê
Muito cidadão que bebe, não sabe o que faz
Ate na sociedade perde o seu cartaz
Pra viver de cara cheia não te satisfaz
Por isso eu digo e repito
Eu já bebi não bebo mais
Translation
I've already drunk, I don't drink anymore, I don't drink anymore.
And no one makes me drink
Because drinking takes away our judgment,
It only causes us harm
Takes away the pleasure of living
In the time I lived, I liked Rita
Wow, beautiful brunette, but I liked to drink
And every night we would get drunk
And at home the stick would sing, and it was a fuss
Many citizens who drink don't know what they're doing
Even in society they lose their reputation
Living with a full face doesn't satisfy you
That's why I say and repeat
I've already drunk, I don't drink anymore
