Bebete Vãobora
Wilson Simoninha Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Bebete vamos embora
Que está na hora
Bebete vamos embora
Que está na hora
Olha que o sol vai sair
E Bebete sorrindo não parou de sambar
Eu sei que você me é fiel
Mas é que os vizinhos já estão a olhar e falar
Eu sou seu homem
E você minha mulher
Eu sou seu homem
E você minha mulher
Mas é que o nosso neném
Está chorando querendo mamar
E você sabe muito bem que logo mais
Eu tenho que ir trabalhar
Pois já não posso chegar atrasado
E nem pensar em faltar
E que o novo gerente não é lá muito meu amigo
E depois como é que eu posso comprar, estando a perigo
Novas sandálias
Pra você sambar Bebete
Bebete vamos embora
Que está na hora




Bebete vamos embora
Que está na hora

Overall Meaning

The song "Bebete Vãobora" by Wilson Simoninha tells the story of a man trying to convince his girlfriend Bebete to leave the party they were attending because it was getting late and they had responsibilities to attend to. Bebete, with her infectious smile, continued to dance and ignored his pleas. The man reassures her of his loyalty but expresses concern over what the neighbors might think, as their baby was crying and needed to be fed. He reminds her that he is her man and she is his woman and that they had to leave, as he had to work in the morning and didn't want to be late or miss a day. He also mentions that his new boss is not very friendly towards him and he needs to be careful with his job, so they can continue to afford the things they need and that she loves, like new sandals for her to dance in.


The song is a reflection of everyday life in Brazil, where many people struggle to make ends meet and have to work hard to provide for their families. The lyrics speak to the realities of relationships, obligations, and the importance of balancing work and play. It shows the struggle between responsibilities and the desire to have fun and enjoy life. Throughout the song, Wilson Simoninha's smooth voice and the upbeat tempo make it feel like a celebration of life, even amidst the struggles.


Line by Line Meaning

Bebete vamos embora
Let's go, Bebete!


Que está na hora
It's time to go


Olha que o sol vai sair
Look, the sun is about to rise


E Bebete sorrindo não parou de sambar
And Bebete keeps dancing, smiling


Eu sei que você me é fiel
I know you are faithful to me


Mas é que os vizinhos já estão a olhar e falar
But the neighbors are already looking and talking


Eu sou seu homem
I am your man


E você minha mulher
And you are my woman


Mas é que o nosso neném
But our baby


Está chorando querendo mamar
Is crying and needs to eat


E você sabe muito bem que logo mais
And you know very well that soon


Eu tenho que ir trabalhar
I have to go to work


Pois já não posso chegar atrasado
Because I can't be late anymore


E nem pensar em faltar
And I can't even think of skipping work


E que o novo gerente não é lá muito meu amigo
And the new manager is not really my friend


E depois como é que eu posso comprar, estando a perigo
And how can I buy things when I'm in danger?


Novas sandálias
New sandals


Pra você sambar Bebete
For you to dance, Bebete


Bebete vamos embora
Let's go, Bebete!


Que está na hora
It's time to go


Bebete vamos embora
Let's go, Bebete!


Que está na hora
It's time to go
