Chamaram-me Cigano
Zeca Afonso
They Called Me Gypsy
They called me one day gypsy and Maltese
Boy, you're not a good beast
I dug a grave in the deepest earth
Made it my tomb
Entered a cave, killed a merman
But had the devil in my hand - Repeat
There was a train ready to leave
And I saw the devil trying
I asked for a coin, stayed right there
Slept on a feather bed
They put me in irons, released the dog
But had the devil in my hand - Repeat
I returned with a saddle and harness
Friend, come back here
I climbed a ladder, made a lot of money
Mr. So-and-so Marquis
Lost at roulette, won at backgammon
But had the devil in my hand - Repeat
Taking a walk, I fell on the curb
And the devil came snarling
Piranhas swam in the dark pond
So big I've never seen such
Cleaned the visor, took the harpoon
But had the devil in my hand - Repeat
