The Brazilian Cowboy Composer:Pablo Raposo I grew up in São Paulo, workin' on cattle ranches Where the sun rises and sets, and life is simple and honest But I always dreamed of ridin' bulls, in rodeos and competitions And it was in Barretos, at the rodeo in the park of the cowboy that I found my passion And I felt my heart racin' fast, when I climbed on the bull for the first time I knew right then and there, I wanted to be a cowboy for real (Chorus) I'm the Brazilian cowboy, with my hat and leather boots I ride horses and ride bulls with pride, with my heart in my chest I'm a warrior of the arena, with skill and courage I left Brazil, to conquer the world And now I'm famous, in the United States, I'm the king of the rodeo (Verse 2) I came to Texas, to learn from the best And soon I was competin', in the most famous rodeos I participated in the Cheyenne Frontier Days, the Houston Livestock Show And the San Antonio Stock Show, where I showed off my skills I gained fame and fortune, with my talent and skill And now I'm a cowboy, respected all over the country (Chorus) I'm the Brazilian cowboy, with my hat and leather boots I ride horses and ride bulls with pride, with my heart in my chest I'm a warrior of the arena, with skill and courage I left Brazil, to conquer the world And now I'm famous, in the United States, I'm the king of the rodeo (Bridge) But I never forgot, where I came from From my family, my friends, my beloved Brazil I always carry with me, the culture and tradition Of my country, that made me the cowboy I am today And I'm grateful for everything, I learned in Brazil And that helped me conquer, my place in the world (Chorus) I'm the Brazilian cowboy, with my hat and leather boots I ride horses and ride bulls with pride, with my heart in my chest I'm a warrior of the arena, with skill and courage I left Brazil, to conquer the world And now I'm famous, in the United States, I'm the king of the rodeo
