E E E Viola

(Rendered somewhat baffling in English since we don't differentiate between "playing" a musical instrument and "playing" a game...)

An alternative version of this chorus goes: "E e e viola, toca que eu quero jogar Angola". 


E E E VIOLA

E e e Viola, toca que eu quero jogar, viola
E e e Viola, toca que eu quero jogar, viola

La na Bahia, tem viola pra vender
Tem acaraje, e a baiana tem dende le le le le
E e e Viola, toca que eu quero jogar, viola
E e e Viola, toca que eu quero jogar, viola

Berimbau viola, que da gosto de tocar
Viola boa, quando ela toca, vou jogar
E e e Viola, toca que eu quero jogar viola
E e e Viola, toca que eu quero jogar, viola

Mas eu quero tocar
Viola
Quero jogar
Angola
Mas eu quero tocar
Viola
Quero jogar
Angola

E e e Viola, play cos I want to play, viola
E e e Viola, play cos I want to play, viola

There in Bahia, there's viola to sell
There's acaraje, and the Bahians have dende, le le le le
E e e Viola, play cos I want to play, viola
E e e Viola, play cos I want to play, viola

Berimbau viola, that I like to play
Good viola, when she plays I'll play
E e e Viola, play cos I want to play, viola
E e e Viola, play cos I want to play, viola

But I want to play
Viola
I want to play
Angola
But I want to play
Viola
I want to play
Angola
