Full lyrics
Quando a farra é boa não tem ninguém que me tira
O pé fica preso no salão e o corpo a balançar
Pra um xamego tem hora, pro forró não conto os dias
Frio na barriga chega se vejo o vinil rodar
Nem tente me levar daqui
Forró me hipnotiza
Tem que respeitar
É sentido de vida
É na chuva, sereno
No cangote um cheiro
Que amanheço o dia
Balanço o salão, envergo
Mas não quebro não
Forró me sintoniza
Tum tum do zabumba pulsando no groove
Compassando o meu coração
Translation
When the party is good, no one can take me away
My feet are stuck to the dance floor and my body is swaying
There's a time for cuddling, but I don't count the days for forró
Butterflies in my stomach arrive when I see the vinyl spinning
Don't even try to take me from here
Forró hypnotizes me
You have to respect it
It's a sense of life
It's in the rain, the dew
A scent on the nape of my neck
That I greet the day
I sway the hall, I bend
But I don't break
Forró tunes me in
The 'tum tum' of the zabumba pulsing in the groove
Keeping time with my heart
