Sou Pagodeiro

I know
That it's hard to understand
I come from the bottom, I'm humble
Only God knows what I've been through
I chase after my money
I'm honest, I'm cool
Only my love doesn't understand me
And that I make a living playing the pandeiro
I am

I'm a pagodeiro, I am
I'm a pagodeiro

When I don't play, I give you attention
No matter how hard I try, I'm not understood
I'm faithful to you, but inside my heart
I am

I'm a pagodeiro, I am
I'm a pagodeiro

I say I'm going to the samba, you say no
You say I'm joking, that I'm pretending
How many nights lost in this relationship
I always come home and have arguments
I am

I'm a pagodeiro, I'm a pagodeiro
I'm a pagodeiro
