Acontece Que Eu Sou Baiano

It just so happens that I'm from Bahia
It just so happens that she is not
But... she's got a sway to the side
My goodness
My Lord Saint Joseph
She's got a sway to the side
My goodness
And no one knows what it is

There are so many women in the world
Only those who don't want to get married don't
Why did I come from afar
To like this woman?

This one who has a sway to the side
My goodness
My Lord Saint Joseph
This one who has a sway to the side
My goodness
And no one knows what it is!

I've already planted in front of my door
A little guinea plant
I've called a voodoo priest
To bless this woman!
