Full lyrics
Ai ai sanfona velha fuxiqueira
Minha nega feiticeira
Você me faz lembrar
Daquele tempo que eu vivia lá na roça
Tocava baile de palhoça
Eu não gosto nem de lembrar
Era bom demais
Ai que saudade os velhos tempos trás
Tocava Baião
Tocava xaxado
Pisada brejeira
Do alto da rancheira
Forro quadrado
Eu vou, eu vou voltar
Eu vou embora
Tem alguém a me esperar
Eu não suporto não
Ate parece a invenção do cão
Translation
Oh oh old gossipy sanfona
My enchanting nega
You make me remember
That time I lived in the countryside
I played straw hut dances
I don't even like to remember
It was too good
Oh what saudade the old times bring
I played Baião
I played xaxado
Rustic step
From the top of the ranch house
Square forró
I'm going, I'm going to return
I'm leaving
There's someone waiting for me
I can't stand it, no
It even seems like the devil's invention
