Quando Eu Chegar Ao Barreiro

I'm leaving for Lisbon
Because life here is bad.

In search of something good
I ask, I don't find it here.

I ask, I don't find it here.

INSTRUMENTAL

When I boarded the train
That blew through the tracks.

Sometimes I think to myself and say
I don't know how lucky I am.

I don't know how lucky I am.

INSTRUMENTAL

When I arrived at Barreiro
On the boat that crosses the Tagus.

Cry for me as I cry for you
I've already left Alentejo.
Cry for me as I cry for you
I've already left Alentejo.
