Eu Quero Meu Amor
Elba Ramalho Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Há quem diga
Que eu dormi de touca
Que eu perdi a boca
Que eu fugi da briga
Que eu caí do galho
E que não vi saída
Que eu morri de medo
Quando o pau quebrou


Há quem diga
Que eu não sei de nada
Que eu não sou de nada
E não peço desculpas
Que eu não tenho culpa
Mas que eu dei bobeira
E que Durango Kid quase me pegou


Eu quero é botar meu bloco na rua
Brincar, botar pra gemer
Eu quero é botar meu bloco na rua
Gingar pra dar e vender


Eu por mim queria isso e aquilo
Um quilo mais daquilo
Um grilo menos nisso
É disso que eu preciso
Não é nada disso
Eu quero todo mundo nesse carnaval
