What’s the meaning of: You better watch out for old slew foot?
I’m Brazilian, and I need help finding a similar expression in Portuguese. Unfortunately, I don’t fully understand the phrase "You better watch out for old slew foot." Could someone explain its meaning?

Ole Slew foot, is a reference to the devil from earlier colonial times. The people of that era not wanting to draw the Devil’s attention to themselves would give him nicknames. ‘Ole slew foot’ was a reference to the fact that he didn’t have toes, he had hooves.

I'm brazilian and I need to find something similar in Portuguese. Unfurtunatly I can't understand this.
It depends on the context and region.Slew Foot can also mean>
*Somebody with big feet (like calling a tall person a “String Bean”).
*Large animal (the bear in the song “Ole Slew Foot”)
*Horse with hoof markings” (Seattle Slew was a “slew foot”)
It is generally associated with Fundamental Christians from the southern US. In this case “slew foot” is another name for the devil, Satan.
