Casa de Bamba
Martinho da Vila
Bamba House
In my house
Everyone is a bamba
Everyone drinks
Everyone sambas...(2x)
In my house
There's no gossip about the neighbor
We don't talk about others
We don't care about gossip...(2x)
In my house
Everyone is a bamba
Everyone drinks
Everyone sambas...(2x)
In my house
No one cares about intrigue
Everyone curses
Everyone fights...(2x)
There's black magic in my house
There's a black hen
Palm oil
But there's a litany in my house
There's a pretty prayer
And cornmeal to eat
But there's a litany in my house
There's a pretty prayer
And cornmeal to eat...
If someone is distressed
Everyone cries
Everyone suffers
But soon we pray
To Saint Benedict
To Our Lady
And to Saint Onofre...
But if someone is singing
Everyone sings
Everyone dances
Everyone sambas
And no one gets tired
Because my house
Is a bamba house
Because my house
Is a bamba house...
There's black magic in my house
There's a black hen
Palm oil
But there's a litany in my house
There's a pretty prayer
And cornmeal to eat
But there's a litany in my house
There's a pretty prayer
And cornmeal to eat...
If someone is distressed
Everyone cries
Everyone suffers
But soon we pray
To Saint Benedict
To Our Lady
And to Saint Onofre...
But if someone is singing
Everyone sings
Everyone dances
Everyone sambas
And no one gets tired
Because my house
Is a bamba house
Because my house
Is a bamba house
Because my house
Is a bamba house...
