Текст и перевод песни Luiz Gonzaga - O Delegado no Coco

O Delegado no Coco

Nóis tava um coco cantando repente
Dançando imbigada, bebendo aguardente
Brigando e amando que nem sempre é
Nas festas qui tem cachaça e muié
Mas quando avistemo quatro sordado
Na raça cantemo esse coro rasgado

Nesse coco poliça num tem vez
(Se acaba no pau, se falá em xadrez)
Nesse coco poliça num tem vez
(Se acaba no pau, se falá em xadrez)

Na porta da venda do Zé Arcobaça
Os quatro sordado pediro cachaça
Depois resolvido de arma na mão
Chegaro pra perto de nossa função
Mas vendo as morena que tavam dançando
Também como nóis ficaro cantando

Nesse coco poliça num tem vez
(Se acaba no pau, se falá em xadrez)
Nesse coco poliça num tem vez
(Se acaba no pau, se falá em xadrez)

O seu Delegado fez mais um esforço
E de madrugada mandou o reforço
Mas desconfiado pur num ter notiça
Vai vê o que houve cum sua poliça
E de manhã cedo a graça do povo
Era o Delegado cantando bem rouco

Nesse coco poliça num tem vez
(Se acaba no pau, se falá em xadrez)
Nesse coco poliça num tem vez
(Se acaba no pau, se falá em xadrez)

Delegate at the Party

We were at a party singing repente
Dancing with each other, drinking our aguardente
Fighting and loving like we always do
At parties where there's cachaça and pretty girls
But when four soldiers appeared
We started singing this song with a great deal of passion

At this party, the police have no place
(If they talk about jail, they're going to get hit in the face)
At this party, the police have no place
(If they talk about jail, they're going to get hit in the face)

At Zé Arcobaça's liquor store
The four soldiers asked for cachaça
Then they decided to show their authority
They came over to our party with their guns
But when they saw the women dancing
They started singing with us like they were in a trance

At this party, the police have no place
(If they talk about jail, they're going to get hit in the face)
At this party, the police have no place
(If they talk about jail, they're going to get hit in the face)

The delegate tried to take control
And at dawn, he sent for backup
But he got suspicious because he hadn't heard anything
So he went to see what had happened to his police
And in the morning, the people were amused
To see the delegate singing so confused

At this party, the police have no place
(If they talk about jail, they're going to get hit in the face)
At this party, the police have no place
(If they talk about jail, they're going to get hit in the face)
