I know how the whole song goes while I'm listening, but as soon as I stop I can remember at all how it goes. How does this happen???

Tocando o violão está Sivuca (note também a sanfona no chão).Pouca gente sabe mas, foi o Sivuca quem fez o arranjo desta música enquanto ele morou nos EUA. Ele escursionou com Miriam Makeba, fazendo shows durante a década de 60!
