Chá Naná Naná

Chá naná naná... she sang to me

Chá naná naná... my rock and roll remedy

She was only sixteen, alone and scared

But she held me close, showed me she cared

We grew up together, through fear and pain

In Parnaíba streets, dancing in the rain

She never cried, but I could see

All that love she saved for me

Drying my tears with that gentle sway

Singing rock and roll to chase the dark away

Chá naná naná, that's how she'd sing

Chá naná naná, my everything

Her voice still echoes in my dreams tonight

Chá naná naná, my guiding light

Mama, you're the melody carved in my soul

Forever my heartbeat, my rock and roll

Now the silence screams where you used to be

I close my eyes and you're all I see

Your love's engraved forever in my chest

Every memory, every note, the very best

You carried all my fears, made them disappear

With every lullaby, you kept me near

Through every storm, you were my home

Now I sing your song, though I'm alone

Chá naná naná, that's how she'd sing

Chá naná naná, my everything

Her voice still echoes in my dreams tonight

Chá naná naná, my guiding light

Mama, you're the melody carved in my soul

Forever my heartbeat, my rock and roll

Chá naná naná... I hear you still

Chá naná naná... I always will

My rock and roll mama... forever you'll be

The sweetest song... inside of me
