São Coisas Nossas (Coisas Nossas)
Noel Rosa
Our Things (Our Things)
I wanted to be a pandeiro
To feel all day long
Your hand on my skin drumming
Missing the guitar and the hut
Our thing, our thing
The samba, the readiness
And other cool things,
Are our things,
Are our things!
Malandro who doesn't drink,
Who doesn't eat,
Who doesn't leave the samba
Because the samba kills hunger,
Very pretty brunette from the countryside,
Our thing, our thing
The samba, the readiness
And other cool things,
Are our things,
Are our things!
Candy seller, newspaper seller
Train driver, conductor and passenger,
Moneylender and the swindler
And the tram that looks like a cart,
Our thing, very ours
The samba, the readiness
And other cool things,
Are our things,
Are our things!
Girl who dates
On the corner and at the gate
Married man with ten children, without a penny,
If the father discovers the trick, he'll beat him up
Our thing, very ours
The samba, the readiness
And other cool things,
Are our things,
Are our things!
