Paraíba

When the mud turned to stone
And Mandacaru dried up
When the thirsty rib
Flapped its wings and flew
That's when I came away
Carrying my pain
Today I send a hug
For you, little one

Paraiba male
Manly woman, yes sir

Wow, Pau Pereira
That as a princess already snored
Wow, Paraiba
Manly woman, yes sir

Wow, Pau Pereira
My slingshot didn't break
Today I command
A hug for you, little one

Paraiba male
Manly woman, yes sir

When the mud turned to stone
And Mandacaru dried up

When the thirsty rib
Flapped its wings and flew
That's when I came away
Carrying my pain
Today I send a hug
For you, little one

Paraiba male
Manly woman, yes sir

Oh, oh, oh
