Meu Xodó
Jacó e Jacozinho
My Darling
I wouldn't trade my old lady with legs full of knots
For a stylish young lady if she wants to be my darling
Because I know my old lady, she only likes me
The young lady is dangerous like a bullet
She just wants my money to spend it all without mercy
My old lady is so skinny she looks like a vine
Her neck is so thin you can only see the Adam's apple
When she walks, she walks in a zigzag
She looks like a little owl up in the barn
With the weight of age, she bent like a hook
They made fun of my old lady, I caused a commotion
I shot in all directions, saw people rolling in the dust
Ran out of ammunition, I released the bone marrow
The police got involved, I called Father Jacob
Even so, there was no way out, I ended up in jail
My life was sweet, I've had greater pleasures
Now at the end of life, it's bitter like a bitter gourd
I used to be a jealous young man, I got old, I got worse
I used to be a fighting cock, now I'm not even a rooster
My time is coming to button up the suit
