Saudosa Maloca

We're going to have to leave, it's progress, progressA gente vai ter que sair mesmo, é o pogresso, pogresso
The subway will pass underneathO metrô vai passar embaixo
The bread falls and falls with the butter facing downO pão cai e cai com a manteiga pra baixo
Bye, shanty townTchau, maloca

Throw the peels over thereJoga as cascas pra lá
Throw the peels over thereJoga as cascas pra lá
Throw the peels over there, my dearJoga as cascas pra lá, meu bem

If you don't rememberSe o sinhô não tá lembrado
Excuse me for tellingDá licença de contar
Since where is it nowJá que aonde agora está
This artful craftEsse ardifício arto

It was an old houseEra uma casa velha
A two-story mansionUm palacete assobradado
It was here, sir, that I, Mato Grosso and JocaFoi aqui, seu moço, que eu, Mato Grosso e o Joca
We built our hutConstruímos nossa maloca

But one day, we can't even rememberMas, um dia, nóis nem pode se alembrá
The men came with the toolsVeio os homens com as ferramenta
That the owner ordered to be torn downQue o dono mandou derrubá

Let's get all our thingsPeguemo todas nossas coisas
And smoke in the middle of the street to enjoy the demolitionE fumos pro meio da rua apreciá a demolição
How sad we feltQue tristeza que nóis sentia
Every plank that fell hurt my heartCada táuba que caía doia no coração

Mato Grosso wanted to shoutMato Grosso quis gritá
But above I saidMas em cima eu falei
The men are rightOs home tá com a razão
We'll find another placeNóis arranja outro lugar

Only if we conformSó se conformemos
When Joca said: God gives the cold according to the blanketQuando o Joca falou: Deus dá o frio conforme o cobertor
And today we pick up the straw from the garden grassE hoje nóis pega as palha na grama do jardim
And to forget, we sing like thisE pra esquece nóis cantemo assim

Dearly missed hut, dear hutSaudosa maloca, maloca querida
Dim dim where we spend the happy days of our livesDim dim donde nóis passemos dias feliz de nossa vida
Dearly missed hut, dear hutSaudosa maloca, maloca querida
Dim dim where we spend the happy days of our livesDim dim donde nóis passemos dias feliz de nossa vida
