É Disso Que O Velho Gosta

I'm just a ranch hand
Born back in the barn
And I learned since I was a kid
To honor the tradition

My dad was a cowboy
Who never knew luxury
But he lived easy, you see
And when someone would ask
What he liked the most
The old man would say this

Barbecue, good mate
Dancing, booze, and women
This is what the old man likes
This is what the old man wants

Barbecue, good mate
Dancing, booze, and women
This is what the old man likes
This is what the old man wants

And that's how I learned
To enjoy the good things
To play my accordion
And sing in perfect pitch
To be a friend to my friends
Never run from danger
My old man taught me well

And I who live to sing
Always learned to appreciate
What my old man enjoyed

Barbecue, good mate
Dancing, booze, and women
This is what the old man likes
This is what the old man wants

Barbecue, good mate
Dancing, booze, and women
This is what the old man likes
This is what the old man wants

I left my hometown
And roamed the land
And now I have a girl
To give me affection
And when a little one comes
To brighten our nest
I'll have even more joy

And if he asks me
What he should enjoy
Like my dad, I'll say

Barbecue, good mate
Dancing, booze, and women
This is what the old man likes
This is what the old man wants

Barbecue, good mate
Dancing, booze, and women
This is what the old man likes
This is what the old man wants
