Life here is just bad
When it doesn't rain on the ground
But if it rains it gives everything
There's plenty of it in the basement §ÃÂo
I hope it rains soon
I hope my God it does
I just leave my Cariri
On the last macaw tree
Sà ³ I leave my Cariri
On the last macaw stick
As long as my little cow
Has leather and bone
And can use the rattle
Hanging around his neck §o
I'm staying here
May God in heaven help me
Whoever leaves their homeland
In another corner, there's no way ¡ra
I only leave my Cariri
On the last macaw stick
I only leave my Cariri
On the last macaw stick
