You Don't Know Me

Caetano Veloso

You Don't Know Me

You don't know me
Bet you'll never get to know me
You don't know me at all
Feel so lonely
The world is spinning round slowly
There's nothing you can show me
From behind the wall
Show me from behind the wall
Show me from behind the wall
Show me from behind the wall

Nasci lá na Bahia de mucama com feitor
O meu pai dormia em cama, minha mãe no pisador
Laia ladaia sabatana Ave Maria

Eu, você, nós dois
Já temos um passado meu amor
Um violão guardava aquela flor
E outras mumunhas mais

Eu agradeço ao povo brasileiro
Norte, centro, sul inteiro
Onde reinou o baião

You Don't Know Me

You don't know me
Bet you'll never really know me
You don't know me at all
Feeling so lonely
The world keeps spinning so slowly
There's nothing you can show me
From behind the wall
Show me from behind the wall
Show me from behind the wall
Show me from behind the wall

I was born in Bahia, a servant with a master
My dad slept in a bed, my mom on the floor
Laia ladaia sabatana, Hail Mary

You and I, just us two
We've got a history, my love
A guitar held that flower
And other little things too

I thank the Brazilian people
North, center, and south all around
Where the baião reigned supreme
