Full lyrics

Compadre pegue o fole

Dê no pé de cajazeira

Que de São Paulo ao Rio

Tá assim de farrozeira

Tá do jeito que eu queria

Não podia ser melhor

Em todo clube tem sanfona

Em todo canto tam forró bis

E é um tal de Tinquilingue

Tinguilingue, Tiguilingue, Tiguilingue

Tem triângulo pelo ar

Pandeiro, ganzá, sanfoneiro e zabumbeiro

Basta o cabra ter dinheiro

Que tem onde farrear

Sábado e Domingo

Não se vê mais conterrâneo

Trabalha fazer os planos

Pra voltar pro seu lugar

Vai se lembrando de lá

E matando a roedeira

Nos forrós a noite inteira

que já tem muito por cá bis

Translation

Buddy, get the accordion

Play it by the cajá tree

Because from São Paulo to Rio

It's teeming with forró parties

It's just the way I wanted it

It couldn't be better

In every club there's an accordion

Everywhere there's forró

In every club there's an accordion

Everywhere there's forró

And it's a sound of Tinquilingue

Tinguilingue, Tiguilingue, Tiguilingue

There's a triangle in the air

Tambourine, shaker, accordion player and zabumba player

As long as the guy has money

He'll have somewhere to party

Saturday and Sunday

You don't see any more countrymen

They work on making plans

To go back to their place

They keep remembering that place

And easing the yearning

At forró parties all night long

because there's a lot of it here now

At forró parties all night long

because there's a lot of it here now
