Convite de Baile
Gino e Geno
Prom Invitation
The postman, my friend, handed me a letter,
It was a dance invitation that the brunette sent me.
And there were only a few days left because the postman was late,
The fifteenth birthday party that makes my future love.
She was waiting for me... Oh, oh,
Smelling like a flower.
("Aoooo kids, let the dust rise."
"In this girl's arms I will go until the sun comes up...".)
The party was held at the Mangabeira farm,
There was torda in the banana leaf yard.
And the kids' snack was cookies in a sieve,
An accordion played in drag and rancheira.
The brunette in my arms... oh, oh.
We danced all night.
("Aoooo kids, I was waiting for the day to happen."
"Cry heartbroken...".)
Only after the sun came out did the dance end,
The brunette asked me "let's sit in the lounge".
He gave me a kiss and smiled, I almost died with emotion,
To talk to your parents and ask for your hand.
And we scheduled the wedding... oh, oh,
Towards the end of summer.
