Portuguese Lyrics

English Translation

Fui um Pagode na casa do gago

I went to a pagode at the house of the stutterer

E o rango demorou sair

And the food took a long time to come out

Acenava pra ele

I waved to him

E ele mais qui qui qui

And he stuttered even more

Qui qui qui guenta ai

Who can endure it


O pagode foi crecendo sob a luz do lampião

The pagode grew under the light of the lamp

Com cuica e pandeiro a moçada batia na mão

With cuica and pandeiro, the young people clapped their hands

A atração da brincadeira era a nega do gago sambando

The attraction of the fun was the stutterer's girl dancing samba

Mais a fome tambem era negra ninguem mais tava aguentando

But hunger was also black, no one could take it anymore

E o cara da viola deu bobeira e caiu pelo chão

And the guy with the guitar made a mistake and fell to the ground

O gago pulava sorria e gritava

The stutterer jumped, smiled, and shouted

Qui qui qui qui qui qui toma mais um limão

Who can, can, can, can, can, have another lemon

Toma mais um limão qui qui qui qui qui qui vocé fica bom

Have another lemon, can, can, can, can, can, you'll feel better

Toma mais um limão qui qui qui qui qui qui vocé fica bom negão

Have another lemon, can, can, can, can, can, you'll feel better, my brother
