Lyrics
Riacho do Navio
Corre pro Pajeú
O rio Pajeú vai despejar
No São Francisco
O rio São Francisco
Vai bater no mei' do mar
O rio São Francisco
Vai bater no mei' do mar
Se eu fosse um peixe
Ao contrário do rio
Nadava contra as águas
E nesse desafio
Saía lá do mar pro
Riacho do Navio
Eu ia direitinho pro
Riacho do Navio
Pra ver o meu brejinho
Fazer umas caçada
Ver as «pegá» de boi
Andar nas vaquejada
Dormir ao som do chocalho
E acordar com a passarada
Sem rádio e sem notícia
Das terra civilizada
Sem rádio e sem notícia
Lyrics translation
Stream of the ship
Run for the straw
The river Pajeú will pour
In San Francisco
The San Francisco River
Will hit the mei ' of the sea
The San Francisco River
Will hit the mei ' of the sea
If I were a fish
Unlike the river
I swam against the waters
And in this challenge
I went out there from the sea pro
Stream of the ship
I was going straight to the pro
Stream of the ship
To see my brejinho
Do some hunting
See the "Pegasus" of Ox
Riding in the vaquejada
Sleep to the sound of the rattle
And wake up with the passarada
No radio and no news
Of the civilized land
No radio and no news
