Coração Sertanejo (part. Sérgio Reis)

Heart of the Countryside (feat. Sérgio Reis)

I wouldn't trade my little ranch
Tied up with vines
For a house in the city
Not even a bungalow

I live there in a desert
With no neighbors, I live alone
I'm only happy when it chirps
Out there in the boonies

It's the tinamou and the mourning dove
It's the tinamou and the mourning dove

When dawn breaks
The rooster crows
The owl hoots sadly
On the ridge of the shack

When evening comes
The jaó hoots sadly
I'm only happy when it chirps
Out there in the boonies

It's the tinamou and the mourning dove
It's the tinamou and the mourning dove

I don't get along with the red soil
With the dry dust
In the lowland of the sandy soil
I feel greater pleasure
Seeing the dove fly
In the sandy soil it makes a circle
I'm only happy when it chirps
Out there in the boonies

It's the tinamou and the mourning dove
It's the tinamou and the mourning dove

I go hunting
Before the sun rises
Shotgun with cartridges
Over my shoulder

I have a horn and a dog
To make a commotion
I'm only happy when it chirps
Out there in the boonies

It's the tinamou and the mourning dove
It's the tinamou and the mourning dove

When I hear news
That someone sings better
My heart sways
I feel a bit dizzy
A sigh escapes my chest
Like a bullet from a gun
I'm only happy when it chirps
Out there in the boonies

It's the tinamou and the mourning dove
It's the tinamou and the mourning dove
