O Samba da Bahia
Getône
The Samba of Bahia
The Samba of Bahia was never from the elite
Created in the yard, a samba without appeal
My 'partido alto' never had a master
My land has corn and yours has fame
I call my influence heritage
My cathedral is a 'casa de umbanda'
And I was dressed up in a samba school
Playing my drum, I become a child again
The Samba is from Bahia, that's a fact
The fame of the trickster brought me down
The samba is from Bahia, I won't deny it
Your controversy doesn't fit in my past
