she was a working girl

carlos dantas barbosa



she was a working girl,

north of brazil way.



now she&
39;s hit the big time

in the fashion system play.



and if she could only hear me

(from the outdoor where she

orientally looks at me

and at you)

this is what i wouldn&
39;t say:



- indian girl

you came a long way

to play this play



- oh, indian girl

should you be as phony as this?



and this is what she maybe wouldn&
39;t say:



- i used to live in a raft

close to the amazon river

full of forest

both vegetal and human



now i&
39;m living in the post industrial jungle

for me it looks the same way.
