The Canoe Turned Over

Children's Song
(Portuguese)
(English)
A canoa virou,
Quem deixou ela virar
Foi por causa da Patrícia
Que não soube remar
Siriri prá cá, siriri prá lá
Ele gosta dela e quer casar.
The canoe turned over,
Who let it turn?
It was because of (insert child's name)
Who did not know how to row
Siriri* this way, siriri that way
He likes her and wants to get married!
