Bancarrota Blues
Chico Buarque
Bankruptcy Blues
A farm
With a big house
Huge veranda
Gives squash
Gives a lot of papaya
Jacaranda tree
I can sell
How much will you give?
Some mosquito
Sun hat
Plenty of fresh water
There's surubim fish
There's bait for the hook
But no need to fish
I can sell
How much do you want to pay?
What I have
I owe to God
My land, my sky, my sea
The eyes of my love
And my children
If someone thinks they'll take
I can sell
How much will you pay?
The diamonds roll on the ground
Gold is dust
Many women to wash clothes
Poppy to smell
I can sell
When will you pay?
Black slaves
For a change
Several lashes
Sweet lundus
For the master to dream
In the shade of the oitis
I can sell
What do you say?
I am happy
And I owe to God
My tropical paradise
Pride of my parents
And my children
No one can take it away, not even by force
But I can sell
Leave some sign
