Lá na Bahia côco de dendê
Lá na Bahia côco de dendê
Lá na Bahia côco de dendê
Lá na Bahia côco de dendê
Pega devagar
Com dendê
Pega devagar
Com dendê
In Bahia there's a coconut
In Bahia there's a coconut
In Bahia there's a coconut
In Bahia there's a coconut
Take it slow
With palm
Take it slow
With palm
In this song the coconut is a metaphor for someone's head. Dendê refers to a type of oil (red palm oil), but in this song it has a subtler meaning of something that is delicious but also bad for you since it is slippery (like the oil).
