Kid Cavaquinho

Look, it was just picking up the cavaquinho
For people to play
But if I tell what it can do
People won't believe a cavaquinho

When it hurts, it hurts hard
It stings like a dagger
When it gets angry, it even seems
Like a showdown

Genésio, the neighbor's wife
Supports that good-for-nothing
Poison is with my cavaquinho
Because if I have it, I face everyone

If someone steps on my toe
I pull out the cavaquinho to crow
If someone steps on my toe
