Nove e Nove

Forward and upward
I can never stop
With me it's nine nine
I will count nine nine
My verses have nine nine
And no nine will be missing
I will give the result
And the nine, nine gives

I was born on the ninth day
At nine o'clock I was pagan
Nine priests, nine churches
Nine times I was Christian
I entered nine schools
And learned nine lessons
I won nine medals
I broke nine champions

Nine brave Bahians
Join nine valor
Nine scares nine cries
Running nine families
Nine Bahians jumping
Cutting nine, cold iron
Nine machetes are tinkling
Nine empty sheaths

I entered nine pagodas
I met nine tough guys
Nine slaps, nine falls
Nine men on the ground
Nine processes running
And working nine clerks
Nine release orders
Nine good lawyers

I had nine girlfriends
Nine times I was married
Nine mothers-in-law and nine fathers-in-law
Nine abandoned homes
When it was the ninth day
I met nine armed men
I fired nine shots up
Made nine brothers-in-law run
