É Disso Que o Velho Gosta

That's What the Old Man Likes
I am a ranch hand
Born there in the shed
And I learned since I was a child
Honoring tradition
My father was a gaucho
Who never knew luxury
But he lived comfortably after all
And when someone asked
What he liked most
The old man said so
Barbecue, good mate
Fandango, I bring and woman
That's what the old man likes
That's what the old man wants
Barbecue, good mate
Fandango, I bring and woman
That's what the old man likes
That's what the old man wants
And that's how I learned
Liking what is good
Playing my accordion
Sing without going out of tune
Be friends with friends
Never run away from danger
My old father taught me
I who live singing
I always learned to like it
What my old man liked
Barbecue, good mate
Fandango, I bring and woman
That's what the old man likes
That's what the old man wants
Barbecue, good mate
Fandango, I bring and woman
That's what the old man likes
That's what the old man wants
I left my farm
And I let myself go for the pay
And today I have a gift
To pet me
And when a little boy comes
To decorate our nest
I will have more joy
What if he asks me
What to like
As my father will say
Barbecue, good mate
Fandango, I bring and woman
That's what the old man likes
That's what the old man wants
Barbecue, good mate
Fandango, I bring and woman
That's what the old man likes
That's what the old man wants
Barbecue, good mate
Fandango, I bring and woman
That's what the old man likes
That's what the old man wants
