El Mate Lavao'

With this brew
We ain't going anywhere
Gotta switch the herb
'Cause the mate's gone weak
'Cause the mate's gone weak, buddy
'Cause the mate's gone weak

No matter how much boldo
Or lemon peel you add
Herbs for heartache
The mate's already weak
Even if they change the straw
Or mix it with some coffee
No matter how much they patch it up
I've lost all my faith

With the uneven circle
Look at what happened
The owner of the kettle
Brews one and drinks two
And to the guy next to him, to shut him up
He offered a little extra
And when it got down here
The mate's already weak

Know that in every mate session
To feel all cozy
Some sip lukewarm water
And applaud the one who brewed
Don't be afraid to spit it out
Never stay quiet
And even if they kick you out of the circle
Don't drink weak mate

With this brew
We ain't going anywhere
Gotta switch the herb
(Gotta switch)
'Cause the mate's gone weak
'Cause the mate's gone weak, buddy
'Cause the mate's gone weak

With some sturdy herb
Burning it is a sin
Whispering with the earth
It's reached his chest
To share it sip by sip
The things it's taught him
And it's a traitor who pays
Brewing the weak mate
