Chapéu de Palha
Garatujos
Straw Hat
If every place has its saint
The one here is definitely Jah
If there's negativity
It's not here, it's definitely there
Straw hat on my head
I'm dancing my cacuriá
With so much culture
It's the foreigners who come here
But that's not any merit
That I can boast about
While some dance and suckle
Others look for air to breathe
The country and its head were cut off some time ago
The country and its head were cut off some time ago
The country and its head were cut off some time ago
The country and its head were cut off some time ago
Until today I haven't accepted
How the Brazilian people never did
It's okay to do, you need to know
And from the starting point we go back to understand
Without food, health, school
How can anyone still manage to live?
The country and its head were cut off some time ago
The country and its head were cut off some time ago
The country and its head were cut off some time ago
The country and its head were cut off some time ago
