Cuidado Moço
Song Lyrics
Cuidado moço
Que essa fruta tem caroço
Cuidado moço
Que essa fruta tem caroço
Pela rama que da a arvore
Sei da fruta que ela da
Essa fruta tem caroço
Ela pode lhe engasgar
Cuidado moço
Que essa fruta tem caroço
Cuidado moço
Que essa fruta tem caroço
Mais vale nossa amizade
Que dinheiro no meu bolso
Para quem sabe viver
Essa vida é um colosso
Cuidado moço
Que essa fruta tem caroço
Cuidado moço
Que essa fruta tem caroço
Ando com o corpo fechado
E um rosario no pescoço
Fui criado la na roça
Tomando agua de poço
Cuidado moço
Que essa fruta tem caroço
Cuidado moço
Que essa fruta tem caroço
Você jogava muito
No tempo que era moço
Já tá ficando velho
Olha as rugas no seu rosto
Cuidado moço
Que essa fruta tem caroço
Cuidado moço
Que essa fruta tem caroço
Cachorro que é esperto
Come a carne e roi o osso
A mulher quando não presta
Mata o cabra de desgosto
Cuidado moço
Que essa fruta tem caroço
Cuidado moço
Que essa fruta tem caroço
English Translation
Take care young man
As this fruit has a seed
Take care young man
As this fruit has a seed
Through the branches of the tree
I know of the fruit that she gives
This fruit has a seed
She can choke on it
Take care young man
As this fruit has a seed
Take care young man
As this fruit has a seed
Our friendship is better
than the money in my pocket
To those who know how to live
This life is a colossus
Take care young man
As this fruit has a seed
Take care young man
As this fruit has a seed
I walk with a closed body
And a rosary around the neck
I was a servant in the country
Drinking water from the well
Take care young man
As this fruit has a seed
Take care young man
As this fruit has a seed
You played a lot
When you were a young boy
You’re already getting old
Look at the wrinkles on your face
Take care young man
As this fruit has a seed
Take care young man
As this fruit has a seed
The dog that is smart
eats the meat and gnaws it to the
bone
A woman when she’s not paying
attention
Disgustingly kills the goat
Take care young man
As this fruit has a seed
Take care young man
As this fruit has a seed
History and sentiment behind song
There are rituals in candomblé that can be performed to “close” the body, magically protecting it from injury.
