History and sentiment behind song
This appears to be a song about a woman who hascome to the market to "raise hell". Perhaps someone tried to sell her a rotten coconut?
Camboatá (kahm-boh-ah-TAH)This word may connote of two things:
1) certain plants with medicinal properties;
or 2) a small fish that lives in fresh water.
