Maria do socorro
Maria of help
Suas pernas torneadas
His legs turned
Pelas ladeiras do morro
Down the slopes of the hill
Ela vai no baile funk
She goes to the funk dance
De shortinho top e gorro
In shorts top and beanie
É afim do zé galinha
It's like the chicken joe
Mas namora o zé cachorro
But you're dating the dog
Maria do socorro
Maria of help
Suas pernas torneadas
His legs turned
Pelas ladeiras do morro
Down the slopes of the hill
Ela vai no baile funk
She goes to the funk dance
De shortinho top e gorro
In shorts top and beanie
É afim do zé galinha
It's like the chicken joe
Mas namora o zé cachorro
But you're dating the dog
E no baile
And at the ball
Foi miss comunidade da favela
It was miss favela community
Hoje sonha em morar noutro lugar
Today dreams of living elsewhere
Mas zé cachorro não deixa
But zé dog won't let
A gata se queixa
The cat complains
Mas fica por lá
But stay there
Maria do socorro
Maria of help
Suas pernas torneadas
His legs turned
Pelas ladeiras do morro
Down the slopes of the hill
Ela vai no baile funk
She goes to the funk dance
De shortinho top e gorro
In shorts top and beanie
É afim do zé galinha
It's like the chicken joe
Mas namora o zé cachorro
But you're dating the dog
E no baile
And at the ball
Foi miss comunidade da favela
It was miss favela community
Hoje sonha em morar noutro lugar
Today dreams of living elsewhere
Mas zé cachorro não deixa
But zé dog won't let
A gata se queixa
The cat complains
Mas fica por lá
But stay there
Maria do socorro
Maria of help
Suas pernas torneadas
