Hello, does anyone have the lyrics to this song? I've searched around and can't find anything written about it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KPO0eB46N1E The closest I found was a Soundcloud recording of Mestre Camaleão singing it, but there are no lyrics there either. https://soundcloud.com/saciperereuk/quando-eu-cheguei-na-bahia?in=saciperereuk/sets/berimbau-chorou-mestre-camaleao submitted by /u/thezompus [visit reddit] [comments ..read more
