Full lyrics
Eu vou fazer um forró de graça
Com a turma caprichando na base do beliscão
Eu quero vê o tique taque do zabumba
Cavaquinho de primeira deixando pro violão
Quero escutar o som do pandeiro
O tinguelingue do triangulo o reco-reco e o ganzá
O sanfoneiro de cabelo assanhado
E o couro todo molhado de tanto cantar
E as cadeiras da morena remexendo
Remexendo, remexendo quando fole caprichar
Vou escrever um forró de graça
Com um aviso assim dizendo é proibido pra menor
Depois de meia noite todo mundo no escuro
Dançando no chão duro até o pé rachar
Eu vou levar pro forró de graça
Um caminhão de cachaça pra turma se embebedar
E quando o dia tiver clareando
E todo mundo lamentando quando o baile terminar
Quem não gostou do forró não paga e
Quem não gostou também nada vai pagar
Translation
I'm going to throw a free forró
With the band putting their heart into the rhythm
I want to see the tick-tock of the zabumba
A top-notch cavaquinho handing it off to the guitar
I want to hear the sound of the tambourine
The ting-a-ling of the triangle, the reco-reco and the ganzá
The accordion player with disheveled hair
And his shirt soaked from so much singing
And the hips of the brunette girl shaking
Shaking, shaking when the bellows play with flair
I'm going to write a free forró
With a sign that says it's forbidden for minors
After midnight, everyone in the dark
Dancing on the hard floor until their feet crack
I'm going to bring to the free forró
A truckload of cachaça for the crowd to get drunk
And when the day is dawning
And everyone is lamenting when the dance ends
Whoever didn't like the forró doesn't pay and
Whoever didn't like it also won't pay anything
