Que Trabalho é Esse?

What Work is This?

What work is this
That they sent for me
If it's to carry stones
It's no use, I won't go there

When I arrive at work
The boss comes with that story
That the work is not productive
I ask for my pay and I leave
When I mention a raise
He always says it's not the time

Look, my friend
The life of a worker
Working for so little money
It's not easy, no sir
To live this way
I prefer to stay as I am

Every day everything gets more expensive
No one can live on illusion
I can't stay like this, my friend
Waiting for my boss
And the family at home without rice and beans
How will it be!

It's Buci Moreira
Only missing you
And that Adufe
And that tap dance
And that smile, right?
But it's okay
