Balaio de Café
Capoeira Brasil
Coffee Basket
Hey, man carrying a coffee basket
Hey, man takes his son and wife
Hey, man carrying a coffee basket
Hey, man takes his son and wife
Chico miner lived in his yard singing
All day long a song of lamentation
About the suffering he went through in the slave quarters
How the man worked during the time of slavery
Hey, man carrying a coffee basket
Hey, man takes his son and wife
Hey, man carrying a coffee basket
Hey, man takes his son and wife
Chico listened to the sound of his berimbau
Every cane that fell in the sugarcane field
Torn pants, suffering all day treated like
An animal inside the slave ship
Hey, man carrying a coffee basket
Hey, man takes his son and wife
Hey, man carrying a coffee basket
Hey, man takes his son and wife
