Paroles et traduction Rita Ribeiro - Cocada

Cocada

Ai, meu Deus, se eu pudesse, eu abria um buraco
Metia os pés dentro, criava raiz
Virava coqueiro, trepava em mim mesmo
Colhia meus cocos, meus frutos feliz

Ralava eles todos com cravo e açúcar
E punha no tacho pra fazer cocada
Depois convidava morenas e loiras
Mulatas e negras pra dar uma provada

Depois, satisfeito de tanta dentada
Na boca de todas eu me derretia
E aí novamente eu abria um buraco
Metia os pés dentro com toda alegria

Virava coqueiro, trepava em mim mesmo
Colhia meus cocos, fazia tachada
Com cravo e açúcar, ficava roxinho
Ficava doidinho pra ser mais cocada

Coco, coco, cocada
Coco, coco, cocada
Coco, coco, cocada
Coco, coco, cocada

Coco, coco, cocada
Coco, coco, cocada
Coco, coco, cocada
Coco, coco, cocada

Ai, meu Deus, se eu pudesse, eu abria um buraco
Metia os pés dentro, criava raiz
Virava coqueiro, trepava em mim mesmo
Colhia meus cocos, meus frutos feliz

Ralava eles todos com cravo e açúcar
E punha no tacho pra fazer cocada
Depois convidava morenas e loiras
Mulatas e negras pra dar uma provada

Depois, satisfeito de tanta dentada
Na boca de todas eu me derretia
E aí novamente eu abria um buraco
Metia os pés dentro com toda alegria

Virava coqueiro, trepava em mim mesmo
Colhia meus cocos, fazia tachada
Com cravo e açúcar, ficava roxinho
Ficava doidinho pra ser mais cocada

Coco, coco, cocada
Cocada pra sinhô, cocada pra sinhá
Coco, coco, cocada
Cocada pra ioiô, cocada pra iaiá

Coco, coco, cocada
Cocada pra sinhô, cocada pra sinhá
Coco, coco, cocada
Cocada pra ioiô, cocada pra iaiá

Coco, coco, cocada
Cocada pra sinhô, cocada pra sinhá
Coco, coco, cocada
Cocada pra ioiô, cocada pra iaiá

Coco, coco, cocada
Cocada pra sinhô, cocada pra sinhá
Coco, coco, cocada
Cocada pra ioiô, cocada pra iaiá

Coco, coco, cocada
Cocada pra sinhô, cocada pra sinhá
Coco, coco, cocada
Cocada pra ioiô, cocada pra iaiá

Coco, coco, cocada
Cocada pra sinhô, cocada pra sinhá
Coco, coco, cocada...

Cocada

Oh, my God, if I could, I'd dig a hole
Stick my feet in, take root
Turn into a coconut tree, climb myself
Pick my coconuts, my happy fruits

I'd grate them all with cloves and sugar
And put them in the pot to make cocada
Then I'd invite brunettes and blondes
Mulatto and black women to give it a taste

Then, satisfied with so many bites
In everyone's mouth, I would melt
And then again I'd dig a hole
Stick my feet in with all my joy

Turn into a coconut tree, climb myself
Pick my coconuts, make a batch
With cloves and sugar, turn purple
Go crazy to be more cocada

Coconut, coconut, cocada
Coconut, coconut, cocada
Coconut, coconut, cocada
Coconut, coconut, cocada

Coconut, coconut, cocada
Coconut, coconut, cocada
Coconut, coconut, cocada
Coconut, coconut, cocada

Oh, my God, if I could, I'd dig a hole
Stick my feet in, take root
Turn into a coconut tree, climb myself
Pick my coconuts, my happy fruits

I'd grate them all with cloves and sugar
And put them in the pot to make cocada
Then I'd invite brunettes and blondes
Mulatto and black women to give it a taste

Then, satisfied with so many bites
In everyone's mouth, I would melt
And then again I'd dig a hole
Stick my feet in with all my joy

Turn into a coconut tree, climb myself
Pick my coconuts, make a batch
With cloves and sugar, turn purple
Go crazy to be more cocada

Coconut, coconut, cocada
Cocada for sir, cocada for madam
Coconut, coconut, cocada
Cocada for boy, cocada for girl

Coconut, coconut, cocada
Cocada for sir, cocada for madam
Coconut, coconut, cocada
Cocada for boy, cocada for girl

Coconut, coconut, cocada
Cocada for sir, cocada for madam
Coconut, coconut, cocada
Cocada for boy, cocada for girl

Coconut, coconut, cocada
Cocada for sir, cocada for madam
Coconut, coconut, cocada
Cocada for boy, cocada for girl

Coconut, coconut, cocada
Cocada for sir, cocada for madam
Coconut, coconut, cocada
Cocada for boy, cocada for girl

Coconut, coconut, cocada
Cocada for sir, cocada for madam
Coconut, coconut, cocada...
