O Amigo de Nova Iorque
Emílio Santiago
The Friend from New York
Here comes my buddy from New York
Here comes my buddy from New York
Here comes my buddy from New York
Here comes my buddy from New York
He lives in the hood
He lives in Harlem
He's from the underground, he's from the black world
He's from the underground, he's from the black world
He made a fuss at this carnival
Played the tambourine, became Brazilian
Climbed the mango tree and Vidigal, Go Salgueiro
Hello brother, hello man, hello black
He is my friend
He is my friend
He's been to Bahia, he's been to Bonfim
Ate vatapá, cassava cake
He played capoeira, played the berimbau
and tambourine
Hello brother...
