Coisas de Minas
Milton Nascimento
Minas Things
Yeehaw, yeehaw
If I told what nobody knows about the folks from there
They'd say it's a lie, it would end my career and what's left of me
Yeehaw, yeehaw
Made the bonfire, fell into it, and the people smiled
The next day, the gossiping old ladies that the priest served
Inside of me, in the stars
Or in what is pretended
Walks my love first
That insists on not completing
Oh, damn
Yeehaw, yeehaw
The door is open, welcome to the house, nice to meet you
If the conversation ends in the kitchen, you're already family
Better for you
It has the sound of everything, it's absurd, it's a mystery
Freedom
Sweet revelry
The sound of all I've heard
Ouro Preto calls Paris
Philadelphia joins the circle
Black miner cries
Passionate dream of those who sing
And will sing, yeehaw, yeehaw
Yeehaw, yeehaw
The door is open, welcome to the house, nice to meet you
If the conversation ends in the kitchen, you're already family
Better for you
Yeehaw, yeehaw
The lovers in the middle of the afternoon start to smile
And here I am on this hill
In front of a bull talking about myself
The sun is setting now
The silence lets you hear
Could it be the sign of an angel?
This breeze translating my names
