Perdoa
Paulinho da Viola
Forgive
My dear, forgive
Forgive my sinful heart
You know that I will never live
Without your love
I've been buying on credit
Because my money doesn't stretch
Imagine if I were married
With more than six children to support
They never gave me an easy time
And I can say that I'm a hard worker
I made a deal with you
When I went to collect, you didn't pay me
But oh my dear
My dear, forgive
Forgive my sinful heart
You know that I will never live
Without your love
Call the owner of this house
I want to tell him my name
Say a very nice verse
He will respond to satisfy my hunger
As the owner of the house
I'm not obliged to serve even a banana
If you want to know my name
It's the one who hasn't eaten in over a week
But oh my dear
My dear, forgive
Forgive my sinful heart
You know that I will never live
Without your love
Call the owner of the grocery store
Who dreams lying in the hammock
Say a very nice verse
He will respond to quench my thirst
The owner of this grocery store
Is not obliged to sell to anyone
You can take the guitar because today is Sunday
And there's no beer
But oh my dear...
My dear, forgive
Forgive my sinful heart
You know that I will never live
Without your love
Spoken:
This samba is a tribute to the Old Guard of Portela.
Mr. Armando Santos, Alberto Lonato,
Manacé, the late Ventura, the late João da Gente,
Santinho, Casquinha.
My dear, forgive
Forgive my sinful heart
You know that I will never live
Without your love
