Filha Mais Nova do Patrão

I am very happy to be a cowboy
I grew up in the backlands herding cattle
With a simple glance from a young girl
I fell forever in love
I thought it was a joke
From such a beautiful bonfire night
Unintentionally, I held her hand
If I tell, few will believe
That this young lady, so sweet and so beautiful
Was the boss's youngest daughter

When it's five in the morning
I think of God and rise for the fight
I scan the farmyard
I see the spotted cattle everywhere
As a good cowboy from the farm
I walk on tiptoes to the yard
Responding to the call of passion
Without fearing her father's scowl
I lean on the window from the sidewalk
And kiss the boss's daughter

On the weekend, there's a dance
I finish my work early
I feed the horse and secure the cattle
I put away the saddle, the jacket, and the rattle
At the appointed time for us both
She arrives first and I follow
And our meeting is in the hall
Envious ones whisper incessantly
Commenting at the party that I only dance
With the boss's youngest daughter

Her father discovered our courtship
The poor and the rich can never be together
Luckily, in my profession
I don't know any cowboy who's soft
I decided to talk to her father
And asked to marry her
But the old man, angry, said no
He kicked me out of the farm
This time I have to leave
But I'll only go with the boss's daughter
He kicked me out of the farm
This time I have to leave
But I'll only go with the boss's daughter
