Sai Da Toca Tatu

Get Out of the Hole, Armadillo

Sai Da Toca Tatu

Every day in the late afternoonTodos os dias bem de tardezinha
I go riding along the edge of the farmVou camperear la na beira da roça
Soon I hear the dogs barkingLogo escuto os cachorros latindo
And that's when things get seriousE ai que a coisa engrossa
In the middle of the commotionNo entreveiro da guaitecada
Deep in the woods breaking branchesMata adentro quebrando taboca
I'm getting closer and letting out a yellVou chegando e soltando o grito

Get out of the hole, armadillo, get out of the holeSai da toca, tatu, sai da toca
Get out of the hole, armadillo, get out of the holeSai da toca, tatu, sai da toca
I'll beat you with a cassava branchQue eu te surro com rama de mandioca
Jump off the branch, you coward, jump off the branchPula do galho bugil pula do galho
Without fear of slipping on the dewSem medo de escorregar no orvalho

When I hear the turkey vulture screechingQuando escuto a pintada esturrando
I quickly do a somersaultJá vou logo virando cambota
The dogs trembling with fearOs cachorros tremendo de medo
Waiting at the door of the hutAguardando a cara na palhoça
I sneak away very quietlyEu vou saindo bem de fininho
Running so fast I even lose my bootsNa carreira até perco as botas
From far away, I still shoutBem de longe ainda solto o grito

Get out of the hole, armadillo, get out of the holeSai da toca, tatu, sai da toca
I'll beat you with a cassava branchQue eu te surro com rama de mandioca
Jump off the branch, you coward, jump off the branchPula do galho bugil pula do galho
Without fear of slipping on the dewSem medo de escorregar no orvalho
