Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Matuto De Verdade by Mano Walter from Portuguese to English.

Riding in a big car

Owning a beach house

Flying on a plane

Sipping wine with my girl

No-limit card

Blowing up on Instagram

Some people might like that

But I'm not a fan

Wanna know the truth?

Just leave me right here

With my country ways

Cheeky accent

Some people don't like it

But that's how I am

I live in the countryside

I'm an old-school hillbilly

I won't trade my countryside

And everybody knows it

I'm no Nutella hillbilly

I'm a real hillbilly

I won't trade my countryside

And everybody knows it

I'm no Nutella hillbilly

I'm a real hillbilly

I won't trade my countryside

And everybody knows it

I'm no Nutella hillbilly

I'm a real hillbilly

I won't trade my countryside

And everybody knows it

I'm no Nutella hillbilly

I'm a real hillbilly

Riding in a big car

Owning a beach house

Flying on a plane

Sipping wine with my girl

No-limit card

Blowing up on Instagram

Some people might like that

But I'm not a fan

Wanna know the truth?

Just leave me right here

With my country ways

Cheeky accent

Some people don't like it

But that's how I am

I live in the countryside

I'm an old-school hillbilly

I won't trade my countryside

And everybody knows it

I'm no Nutella hillbilly

I'm a real hillbilly

I won't trade my countryside

And everybody knows it

I'm no Nutella hillbilly

I'm a real hillbilly

I won't trade my countryside

And everybody knows it

I'm no Nutella hillbilly

I'm a real hillbilly

I won't trade my countryside

And everybody knows it

I'm no Nutella hillbilly

I'm a real hillbilly

SONG MEANING

Matuto De Verdade is Mano Walter’s playful anthem of authenticity. Over a lively forró beat, the Brazilian singer contrasts flashy city luxuries—big cars, beach houses, private jets, unlimited credit cards, Instagram fame—with the simple happiness he finds in his rural hometown. By repeating that he is "matuto de verdade" (a genuine country guy) and not a "matuto Nutella" (a slang term for someone who only pretends to be rustic), Mano celebrates the pride, accent, and unpolished charm of Brazil’s interior life.

The message is clear and catchy: real joy isn’t measured by status symbols but by staying true to your roots. Whether you live in a bustling city or a quiet village, the song invites you to embrace who you are, speak in your own accent, and dance along without worrying about filters or followers. 🎶
