Moro Na Roça

I live in the countryside, hey hey
I've never lived in the city
I buy the morning newspaper
To know the news
I live in the countryside, hey hey...

My people, I just arrived
My people, I just arrived
My people, I arrived with God
And Our Lady

I live in the countryside, hey hey...

Xique Xique Macambira
Son of Black from Angola
Doesn't even know how to read
Already wants to be a schoolmaster

I live in the countryside, hey hey...

It was you and it was her
It was her, it was you and me
Today neither you nor her nor her
Nor you nor me

I live in the countryside, hey hey...
