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
