Velho Galã
Teodoro e Sampaio
Old Heartthrob
That old man that people talk so much about
Who's already past seventy and hasn't lost his ways
He only goes out at night, almost like a bat
At home, he's restless
And the old lady gets jealous
He keeps calling the old lady 'jackfruit peel'
Chatty like a parrot
He's a handful
Goes to the forró
And wears out his shoe soles
Takes the girls to the bushes
Comes home without his underwear
At the dance hall, the old man is a flash
Dances vaneirão and xote
Jumps like a finch
At the dance hall, the old man is a flash
Dances vaneirão and xote
Jumps like a finch
One of these days he came home groaning
With a sore rib from sleeping in the slammer
His shin was scraped from top to bottom
All covered in lumps and the old lady felt sorry
She made a mint and cinnamon tea
For the old man to sleep with her
He wanted some affection
She'd get close, he'd move away
It hurts, I'm broken, today I'm not up for it
At the dance hall, the old man is a flash
Dances vaneirão and xote
Jumps like a finch
At the dance hall, the old man is a flash
Dances vaneirão and xote
Jumps like a finch
The old man said with all sincerity
When I go to the city, it's to see my fans
Stop causing trouble, quit this commotion
Think I'm still young
My lady, I'm a heartthrob
I'm vaccinated against any rheumatism
Neither prayer nor spell can make me give up revelry
I'm sure I won't be left behind
But I want to die content on a woman's lap
At the dance hall, the old man is a flash
Dances vaneirão and xote
Jumps like a finch
At the dance hall, the old man is a flash
Dances vaneirão and xote
Jumps like a finch
