Não Toco Não
João Carreiro
I Don't Play It
They asked me to sing a hit of the moment
These current songs that play on the radio
I replied straight up: Are you telling me to leave?
Don't you see that my thing is the viola?
I don't play it, no
I don't play it, no
These trends nowadays have nothing to do with the countryside
I don't play it, no
I don't play it, no
I only play if asked, a Ronaldo or a Tião
It's not jealousy, envy, or spite
I just defend the viola and I have that right
I only sing healthy songs, I don't sell my respect
My greatest wealth is the viola in my heart
I don't play it, no
I don't play it, no
These trends nowadays have nothing to do with the countryside
I don't play it, no
I don't play it, no
I only play if asked, a Ronaldo or a Tião
I don't play it, no
I don't play it, no
These trends nowadays have nothing to do with the countryside
I don't play it, no
I don't play it, no
I only play if asked, a Ronaldo or a Tião
But life is a school, it's a teacher
It teaches me that passion is lasting
But it always heals
Today the earth trembles
Today the stone rolls
This is the sound of my land
I arrived at the sound of the viola
