Lyrics
Rock do Mendigo
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Me dá, não dou
Me dá, não dou
Eu conheci um tipo
Que ficou maluco,
E a causa disso
Foi por que ele encontrou
Um camarada
De cara barbada
Que a sua mente perturbou.
Coitado do rapaz foi perseguido
A vida inteira pelo tal mendigo
Que estendia a mão, impertinente
E murmurava roucamente:
- Ei, me dá um dinheiro aí!
No bonde, no trem ou lotação
Surgia sempre aquela pobre mão
Sempre a pedir, a implorar
Ele não pode suportar
E desde então o moço bonitão
Que era artista de televisão
Vive a berrar...não dou, não dou...!
E no hospício ele acabou.
