João Armadillo

I arrived at a ranch dance, it was cold, drizzling
The womanizer shouted: - Look who's coming
I threw myself into the arms of one and we started digging

Dig here, dig there, dig everywhere
And I was born to be an armadillo, my business is digging
Dig here, dig there, dig there, dig there, dig everywhere
And I was born to be an armadillo, my business is digging

I left like a suspicious crooked donkey watching over me
And the old ladies like owls lurking in the corners
And I pretended not to see and kept on digging

Dig here, dig there, dig everywhere
And I was born to be an armadillo, my business is digging
Dig here, dig there, dig there, dig there, dig everywhere
And I was born to be an armadillo, my business is digging

Here comes a blind man
The lantern almost going out
And I agreed with Tiburcia to slide away
Because I was born to be an armadillo and I want to die digging

Dig here, dig there, dig everywhere
And I was born to be an armadillo, my business is digging
Dig here, dig there, dig there, dig there, dig everywhere
And I was born to be an armadillo, my business is digging

The ranch owner shouted: - Hey accordion player, stop
I'm going to count the ladies to see if one is missing
Because outside I saw a strange figure digging
