Lyrics

Ele vive calmo
E na hora do Porto da Barra fica elétrico
Eu vivo elétrico
E na hora do Porto da Barra fico calmo
Ele vive eletriconsumida, consumada ou mudamente
Bem mais calmo
Porque curte cada golpe do martelo
Na bigorna do destino
E na hora do Porto da Barra fica firme
Eu vivo calmargalarga, abertamente
Bem mais louco
Porque espero pelo beijo arrependido
Da serpente do começo
E na hora do Porto da Barra fico aflito
E na hora do Porto da Barra fico aflit

Lyrics translation

He lives calm
And at the time of the Port of the bar is electric
I live electric
And at the time of the Port of Barra I am calm
He lives electricconsumed, consummated or changed
Much calmer
Why enjoy every blow of the hammer
In the anvil of fate
And at the time of the Port of Barra stands firm
I live calmargalarga, openly
Much crazier
Because I wait for the sorry kiss
From the beginning snake
And at the time of the Port of Barra I am distressed
And at the time of the Port of Barra I am afflit
