Full lyrics
O povo no baile dançava sem parar
E o mineiro esperto no cantinho a cochilar
Foi um beslicão que envermelhô seu bucho
Acorda zabumbeiro e volta logo pro repuxo
Agita nego agito nego
Dois minutos de cochilo num soninho bom
Agito agita nego
Se num parar nesse cochilo vai ter beslicão
Agita nego agito nego
Dois minutos de cochilo num soninho bom
Agita nego agita nêgo
Se parar nesse cochilo vai ter beslicão
E vai ter beliscão calombo vai subir
Sua a mulher vai ficar braba se tu não sair
Eu sei que a rede é boa pra se cochilar
Mas o forró de chama nego
Ou eu vou vou te beslicar
Translation
The people at the dance were dancing non-stop
And the clever miner was dozing in the corner
It was a pinch that reddened his belly
Wake up, zabumba player, and get back to the groove
Shake it, man, shake it, man
Two minutes of dozing in a nice little nap
Shake it, shake it, man
If you don't stop napping, you'll get pinched
Shake it, man, shake it, man
Two minutes of dozing in a nice little nap
Shake it, man, shake it, man
If you stop napping, you'll get pinched
And you'll get pinched, a bump will rise
Your woman will get angry if you don't get out there
I know the hammock is good for a nap
But the forró is calling, man
Or I'm going to pinch you
