Abc do Preguiçoso

Lazy ABC

Husband gets up and goes to set up a trap
To catch a fat paca for us to eat a stew
Aroeira is heavy wood, it ain't my old lady
It falls and hurts my foot, oh how I miss it

Husband gets up and goes to your grandma's house
To grab her shotgun for you to hunt a rabbit
But on the rocky ground, there’s a nasty snake, it ain't my old lady
It bites me and it gets worse, oh how I miss it

Then husband gets up and goes to hunt a curassow
We eat its meat and make a mess with the feathers
Oh, how I wish I were there now, it ain't my old lady
In the arms of a dark-skinned beauty, oh how I miss it

That guy gets up and goes to the vendor's place
To buy some fatty meat for us to make a porridge
It's just that I don't have any more money, it ain't my old lady
I won't buy on credit, oh how I miss it

Oh husband, get up and go to the vendor's shop
Buy ten meters of fabric to make clothes for our kids
Inside there's an old mattress, it ain't my old lady
Tear it apart and make me some pants, oh how I miss it

Damn it, get up, stop being lazy
A man who doesn't work can't eat well
It's just that working is really good, it ain't my old lady
But it's a bit risky, oh how I miss it

Oh husband, get up and come have some porridge
It's to give us strength to make a big mess
Playing around early in the morning, it ain't my old lady
Risky, breaking the stick, oh how I miss it

Husband, you damn fool, you're gonna die
Dogs will bark at you and vultures will eat you
If I had known all this, it ain't my old lady
I wouldn't have married you, oh how I miss it
