Gineteada

It's part of our tradition now
A wild ride on a lasso
If you haven't seen it, you might think
It's just a game we play
When a colt whinnies in the spur
It even kicks up some dust

Whoa! Yeah, come on, whoa, yeah!
Get a grip, buddy
Yeah, whoa, yeah!
Yeehaw, yeehaw, yeehaw, yeehaw

That's how it goes in Rio Grande do Sul
At a rodeo during the festival
A roping contest
There's a competition for reins and racing
But it's always a rodeo showdown
That becomes the main attraction

Whoa! Yeah, come on, whoa, yeah!
Get a grip, man
Yeah, whoa, yeah!
Yeehaw, yeehaw, yeehaw, yeehaw

But there are fierce and tricky colts
Four or five grabbing at the ears
If it bucks, it can scare the rider
It stands up and sometimes it spins
Someone shouts: Hold on, I'm coming!
Give it a kick, I hear it and it whinnies

Whoa! Yeah, come on, whoa, yeah!
Get a grip, man
Yeah, whoa, yeah!
Yeehaw, yeehaw, yeehaw, yeehaw
