Full lyrics
O delegado ta no coco
Ta no coco ta
O delegado ta no coco
E vai ate o sol raiar
O delegado ta no coco
Ele quer muito respeito
O delegado ta
E vocês vão dançar direito
O delegado ta no coco
Não quero chateação
O delegado ta
Dando viva a São João
No coco do delegado
Dança mulher e menino
O cabra fala fino se quiser dar umbigada
Segura moçada, no coco rojão
Porque o delegado pra isso deu permissão
Quando amanheceu o dia
Todo mundo satisfeito
Dançaram direito, não houve lambança
Bom encher a pança esta todo mundo em paz
Quem brincou brincou,
Quem não brincou não brinca mais
Translation
The delegate is at the coco dance
Is at the coco, yes
The delegate is at the coco dance
And will go until the sun rises
The delegate is at the coco dance
He wants a lot of respect
The delegate is here
And you all will dance properly
The delegate is at the coco dance
I don't want any trouble
The delegate is here
Cheering for São João
At the delegate's coco dance
Women and children dance
The man speaks softly if he wants to do the umbigada
Hold on, youngsters, in the lively coco dance
Because the delegate gave permission for that
When the day dawned
Everyone satisfied
They danced properly, there was no mess
Good to fill the belly, everyone is at peace
Those who partied, partied
Those who didn't party, don't party anymore
