Tradição Gaúcha
Chitãozinho & Xororó
Gaucho Tradition
A gaucho tradition
Is baggy pants, boots, and spurs
It's a cowboy on his horse
Riding through the fields
On the saddle's buckle
A thick leather lasso
A wide-brimmed hat
And a scarf around the neck
A gaucho tradition
Is the homeland and the hills
It's the beloved Teixeirinha
And the Farroupilha Band
A gaucho tradition
Is the xote and the rancheira
It's an accordion player playing
And the gauchos dancing
The vanerão and the vanera
A gaucho tradition
Is barbecue and mate
It's the moan of the accordion
It's a crying accordion
It's a fandango in the barn
A gaucho tradition
Is barbecue and mate
It's the moan of the accordion
It's a crying accordion
It's a fandango in the barn
Oh, big accordion
A gaucho tradition
Is the girl in a long skirt
A dance at the CTG
To the rhythm of the milonga
A silver lasso
A poncho covering the saddle
An eight-bass accordion
And a hat with a string
A gaucho tradition
Is the dance with big steps
It's the guampa cachaça
And the cup of bitter mate
A gaucho tradition
Is the biggest challenge
It's the thrilling duel
The fight of two giants
The Grenal at Beira-Rio
A gaucho tradition
Is barbecue and mate
It's the moan of the accordion
It's a crying accordion
It's a fandango in the barn
A gaucho tradition
Is barbecue and mate
It's the moan of the accordion
It's a crying accordion
It's a fandango in the barn
A gaucho tradition
Is barbecue and mate
It's the grunt of the accordion
It's a crying accordion
It's a fandango in the barn
A gaucho tradition
Is barbecue and mate
It's the moan of the accordion
It's a crying accordion
It's a fandango in the barn
And give me another big accordion
