Hi all,

This is a long shot, but I have a recording of a concert where an American singer sings a song in Portuguese. Unfortunately, the track list I was given just lists the song as “Portuguese Song,” but I’d like to give the actual title.

Also unfortunately, I can really make out most of the words. What I can come up with is that the first two lines really sound like this:

compre una casa bacana
para passada

Anyone have any ideas?

It might be "Lá Em Casa Todo Mundo Ó" (Comprei uma casa bacana,/ Pra passar o meu fim de semana...). You can hear it sung here (#169) - the lyrics are on the same page. Information about it here.

Lá em Casa Todo Mundo Ó
Marchinhas de Carnaval

Comprei uma casa bacana,
Pra passar o meu fim de semana,
Tem uma piscina que é uma tentação,
Em vez de água, é pinga com limão.

(bis)

Lá em casa todo mundo ó,
Lá em casa todo mundo ó,
Só quem não toma banho,
Na piscina é a vovó.

Google Translate:

I bought a nice house,
To spend my weekend,
It has a pool that's a temptation,
Instead of water, it's cachaça with lemon.

Everyone at home looks,
Everyone at home looks,
Only the one who doesn't take a bath,
In the pool is Grandma.
