Maria Bethânia Songtext
von Fonso

She has given her soul to the devil
But the devil gave her soul to God
She has given her soul to the devil
But the devil gave her soul to God

She has given her soul to the devil
But the devil gave her soul to God
She has given her soul to the devil
But the devil gave her soul to God

Oh, oh
Oh, oh
Oh, oh

She has given her soul to the devil
But the devil gave her soul to God
She has given her soul to the devil
But the devil gave her soul to God

Before the flood
After the blood
Before you can see


She has given her soul to the devil
But the devil bought a flat by the sea
She has given her soul to the devil
But the devil bought a flat by the sea
She has given her soul to the devil
But the devil bought a flat by the sea

Maria Bethânia
Please send me a letter

I wish that things were better, better, better
Better, better, Bethânia
I wish that things were better, better, better
Better, better, Bethânia

Everybody knows that it's so hard to dig and get to the root
Everybody knows that it′s so hard to dig and get to the root
Everybody knows that it's so hard to dig and get to the root
Everybody knows that it's so hard to dig and get to the root


But you eat the fruit
But you go ahead
You wake up on your bed
But you go ahead
