Vamos Kizombar
Martinho Da Vila Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Vamos Kizombar
Chegou a hora dessa gente ser feliz
Panela no fogo
Barriga vazia
Esse povo nunca quis
Brasil
Vê se toma uma atitude
Dividindo o pão de hoje
Com os moleques do amanhã
Que assim
Vai mostrar pra todo mundo
Que é possível comer junto
Com um pedaço de maçã
Carioca maneiro
É o Betinho mineiro
Que acordou a nação
Reunindo o pessoal
Pra fazer um carnaval
Com um quilo na mão
Kizombar
Kozombeiro




Lutando contra a fome
Pelo Rio de Janeiro
