A Garagem da Vizinha [English translation]
A Garagem da Vizinha [English translation]
Back on the street where I live, I met a neighbor
Separated from her husband and living alone
Besides being beautiful, she is a well of kindness
Seeing my car in the rain she offered her garage!
She said: nobody uses it since he left me!
Inside my garage cobwebs gathered!
Put your car in here, or it will rust!
The garage is used but your car will like it!
Chorus:
I put the car in, take the car out, any time I want
What a tight little garage, what a sweet woman
I take it out early and put it in at night, and sometimes in the afternoon
I'm even changing the oil in the neighbor's garage!
Only my mighty car has a nice trailer
Which I use to sell coconuts and earn some extra money
The garage is small, what do I do now?
My car stays inside, the coconuts stay outside!
My neighbor's nice, I'll take care of the garage
At the door weeds have grown, I've cut them down!
My neighbor's kindness is out of this world
When I don't use the one in front, I use the garage in the back!
