O Feijão de Dona Nenem

Dona Nenem's Bean
Hello, Wet Rat folks!
Here comes a sly party!
This bean smells good
It was Dona Neném
Who ordered it to be prepared
Said that Penha told her
That firewood
Has good taste
Put firewood in the fire, Neném
Let the bean cook
Put firewood in the fire, Neném
Don't let the bean burn
Between the sugarcane and the appetizer
It was August
I remember very well
I went to Rato's Favela
As a guest of Dona Neném
I found the movement strange
But I thought to myself
It will be fine
But I stumbled on a brick
I bumped into a black man
Who fell too
Full of hunger, the black man
On the ground waiting
For Neném's bean
Put firewood in the fire, Neném
Let the bean cook
Put firewood in the fire, Neném
Don't let the bean burn
The black man wanted a fight
But fatigue didn't allow
I saw it was trickery
It was a scam, it was all set up
They asked for help
They gave me the shorts
The shovel, the hoe, and the wheelbarrow
Where the message read
First the slab, then the bean
