Esse Rio é Minha Rua
Fafá de Belém
This River is My Street
This river is my street
Mine and yours, mururé
I step on the moon's chest
I lie on the tide's ground
Well, well
I'm not from the stream
Who rode the big snake
Doesn't ride the purequé
Down the river, up the river
My fate is sugar cane
Just thinking about the damn thing
I remembered Abaeté
CHORUS
Well, well...
I'm not from the stream
Who rode the big snake
Doesn't ride the purequé
Answer me, black dolphin
Who gave you that scar
Was it seaweed slime
Or woman's stench?
CHORUS
Well, well...
I'm not from the stream
Who rode the big snake
Doesn't ride the purequé
