Lavadeira Do Rio

Maria Rita Maria Rita

River Washerwoman

The river washerwoman
So many sheets to wash
One skirt is missing
When the soap runs out
But run to the beach
See the foam shine

Hear the wild noise
Of the waves crashing
On the shore (2x)

Hey, oh! The wind blew!
Hey, oh! The leaf fell!
Hey, oh! Where's my love?
The night has come and it's cold (2x)

Oh, Rita, get away from the window
Let that guy pass
If you're not rich and beautiful
You can't let your guard down
But, Rita, get away from the window
'Cause the girls around here
Don't linger as maidens
And aren't destined to marry (2x)

Hey, oh! The wind blew!
Hey, oh! The leaf fell!
Hey, oh! Where's my love?
The night has come and it's cold (2x)
