Não Deixo Não Lyrics in English Mano Walter

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Não Deixo Não by Mano Walter from Portuguese to English.
Verse 1
She made me buy a car
Me, who loved my horse
She made me sell my cattle
To move into a gated condo
She gave me sneakers as a gift
Said boots don't suit us anymore
What a shameless girl
Then I couldn't take it, I said what my heart feels
Go to hell with your love
Quit being a cowboy, quit hearing modão, my guitar
I won't, no
I won't, no
Drop my hat to use gel, good Lord above
I won't, no
I won't, no
Stop being a cowboy, hear forró and modão
I won't, no
I won't, no
Drop my hat to use gel, good Lord above
I won't, no
There's no love worth that, no
She made me sell my cattle
To move into a gated condo
She gave me sneakers as a gift
Said boots don't suit us anymore
What a shameless girl
Then I couldn't take it, I said what my heart feels
Go to hell with your love
Quit being a cowboy, quit hearing modão, my guitar
I won't, no
I won't, no
Drop my hat to use gel, good Lord above
I won't, no
I won't, no
Stop being a cowboy, hear forró and modão
I won't, no
I won't, no
Drop my hat to use gel, good Lord above
I won't, no
There's no love worth that, no
She made me buy a car
Me, who loved my horse

SONG MEANING

Mano Walter’s “Não Deixo Não” is a humorous country-pop anthem about staying true to your roots. The singer is a proud cowboy who rides horses, herds cattle, wears a hat and boots, and loves traditional Brazilian forró and modão (classic sertanejo songs). When a city-loving girlfriend tries to “upgrade” his lifestyle—swapping his horse for a car, his boots for sneakers, and his cowboy hat for hair gel—he draws the line. In catchy, repetitive choruses, he tells her to “go to hell with your love” because no romance is worth giving up who I am.

The song’s playful lyrics celebrate authenticity and rural pride while poking fun at modern materialism. Listeners hear a lighthearted but firm message: keep the love of your culture, music, and way of life, even if someone you adore wants to change you. "Não deixo, não" (“I won’t give it up, no way”) becomes a joyful mantra for anyone who refuses to trade their identity for someone else’s idea of sophistication.
