O Homem da Gaita
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.
Havia na terra um homem que tinha
Uma gaita bem de pasmar
Se algum a ouvia fosse gente ou bicho
Entrava na roda a danar
Um dia passava um sujeito e ao lado
Um burro com loua a trotar
O dono e o burro ouvindo a tocata
Puseram-se logo a bailar
Partiu-se a faiana
Em cacos c'o a dana e o pobre pedia a gritar
Ao homem da gaita
Que acabasse a fita
Mas nada ficou por quebrar
O Juiz de fora
Chamado na hora
