Coqueiro Verde
Erasmo Carlos
Green Coconut
In front of the green coconut tree
I waited an eternity
I've already smoked one and a half cigarettes
And Narinha didn't come
But as Leila Diniz says
A man has to be tough
If she doesn't arrive now
She doesn't need to come
Because I'm leaving
I'll read my newspaper
If she arrives and doesn't see me
She'll run after me
But I'm leaving
I'll read my newspaper
If she arrives and doesn't see me
She'll run after me
(Go)
In front of the green coconut tree
I waited an eternity
I've already smoked one and a half cigarettes
And Narinha didn't come
But as Leila Diniz says
A man has to be tough
If she doesn't arrive now
She doesn't need to come
But I'm leaving
I'll read my newspaper
If she arrives and doesn't see me
She'll run after me
(From me, from me)
But I'm leaving
I'll read my newspaper
If she arrives and doesn't see me
She'll run after me
In front of the green coconut tree
I waited an eternity
I've already smoked one and a half cigarettes
And Narinha didn't come
But as Leila Diniz says
A man has to be tough
If she doesn't arrive now
She doesn't need to come
But I'm leaving
(I'm gone)
I'll read my newspaper
If she arrives and doesn't see me
She'll run after me
(From me, from me)
But I'm leaving
I'll read my newspaper
If she arrives and doesn't see me
She'll run after me
(Say)
In front of the green coconut tree
I waited an eternity
I've already smoked one and a half cigarettes
And Narinha didn't come
But as Leila Diniz says
(Famous actress)
A man has to be tough
If she doesn't arrive now
She doesn't need to come
But I'm leaving
(How wonderful)
I'll read my newspaper
If she arrives and doesn't see me
She'll run after me
(From me, from me)
But I'm leaving
I'll read my newspaper
If she arrives and doesn't see me
She'll run after me
