O Xote Das Meninas
Luiz Gonzaga
The Girls' Xote
Mandacaru when it blooms in the dryness
It's a sign that the rain arrives in the backlands
Every girl who gets tired of her doll
It's a sign that love has already reached her heart
Long socks, no longer wants low shoes
Dress well cinched, no longer wants to wear a plain one
She just wants, just thinks about dating
She just wants, just thinks about dating
Early in the morning she's already made up
She only sighs, daydreaming
The father takes the sick daughter to the doctor
She doesn't eat, doesn't study
Doesn't sleep and doesn't want anything
She just wants, just thinks about dating
She just wants, just thinks about dating
But the doctor doesn't even examine
Calling the father aside, he quickly tells him in a whisper
That the problem is her age and that for such a girl
There is not a single remedy in all of medicine
She just wants, just thinks about dating
She just wants, just thinks about dating
Mandacaru when it blooms in the dryness
It's a sign that the rain arrives in the backlands
Every girl who gets tired of her doll
It's a sign that love has already reached her heart
Long socks, no longer wants low shoes
Dress well cinched, no longer wants to wear a plain one
She just wants, just thinks about dating
She just wants, just thinks about dating
Early in the morning she's already made up
She only sighs, daydreaming
The father takes the sick daughter to the doctor
She doesn't eat, doesn't study
Doesn't sleep and doesn't want anything
She just wants, just thinks about dating
She just wants, just thinks about dating
But the doctor doesn't even examine
Calling the father aside, he quickly tells him in a whisper
That the problem is her age and that for such a girl
There is not a single remedy in all of medicine
She just wants, just thinks about dating
She just wants, just thinks about dating
