Full lyrics
Chegou o coquista de pandeiro na mão
Quero ver a rapaziada batendo palma de mão
O pagode estava triste mais agora esquentou
Porque o coquista chegou com um pandeiro e um ganzá
Todo mundo vai dançar batendo palma de mão
E bem no meio do salão se ouve a turma gritar
O dono da casa falou tem pamonha e milho assado
Pra quem ta embiritado tem rede pra se deitar
Só não quero ver parar essa marzuca agora
Quero ver o coco de roda da poeira levantar
Translation
The coconut shaker arrived with a tambourine in hand
I want to see the youngsters clapping their hands
The party was sad but now it's heated up
Because the coconut shaker arrived with a tambourine and a shaker
Everyone will dance clapping their hands
And right in the middle of the hall you can hear the crowd shout
The owner of the house said there's pamonha and roasted corn
For those who are tipsy there's a hammock to lie down
I just don't want to see this marzuka stop now
I want to see the coconut wheel raise the dust
