Full lyrics

Coco de roda zabumbando no pandeiro

faz o terreiro se bulir se balançar

fogo de palha fumaçando no sereno esse moreno

tá querendo namorar

Morena eu te conheço pelo teu

olhar miúdo não me rendo

não me íludo,eu não sou de me entregar

filho da poeira da ladeira do riacho

eu conheço um cabra macho

pelo jeito de olhar

também sou perigoso cuidado comigo

minha amiga eu lhe digo

não sou fulô de se cheirar

puro sou dengoso

sou menino louco

o meu beijo é um sufoco

quem provou pode falar

não seja malandrinha cuidado morena

meu coração tem veneno

você vai se envenenar.

Translation

Coco de roda playing the zabumba on the pandeiro

makes the yard stir, makes it sway

straw fire smoking in the dew, this dark-skinned man

wants to flirt

Dark-skinned woman, I know you by your

small gaze, I don't give in

I don't delude myself, I'm not one to surrender

son of the dust from the stream's slope

I know a tough guy

by the way he looks

I'm also dangerous, be careful with me

my friend, I tell you

I'm not a flower to be sniffed at

pure, I am tender

I am a crazy boy

my kiss is suffocating

whoever tasted it can tell

don't be a sly girl, be careful, dark-skinned woman

my heart has poison

you will get poisoned.
