Full lyrics
Fole Danado
Canta o galo no poleiro e a lua bonita se esconde
No fininho sanfoneiro e o baixo no grosso responde
Dança velha mais dança menina,
Cintura bem fina pra gente abraçar
Dança velha mais dança menina,
Cintura bem fina pra gente apertar
Eita fole danado
Chorando, gemendo, gemendo, chorando querendo chorar
Eita fole danado
Chorando, gemendo, cangote cheiroso pra gente cheirar
Eita fole danado
Chorando, gemendo, gemendo, chorando querendo chorar
Eita fole danado
Chorando, gemendo, menina bonita pra gente dançar (bis)
Já acochei no sanfoneiro
E eu dançando com a namorada
Vai morrendo o candeeiro
Cabroeira dançando animada
É suor, é poeira, é fumaça
Sanfona de raça de um bom tocador
Se cochilo e fico dengoso
É cangote cheiroso que tem meu amor
Eita fole danado
Chorando, gemendo, gemendo, chorando querendo chorar
Eita fole danado
Chorando, gemendo, cangote cheiroso pra gente cheirar
Eita fole danado
Chorando, gemendo, gemendo, chorando querendo chorar
Eita fole danado
Chorando, gemendo, menina bonita pra gente dançar (bis)
Translation
The rooster crows on the perch and the beautiful moon hides
In the thin sanfoneiro and the bass responds in the thick
Dance, old woman, dance, girl,
Very thin waist for us to hug
Dance, old woman, dance, girl,
Very thin waist for us to squeeze
Oh, damned fole
Crying, moaning, moaning, crying wanting to cry
Oh, damned fole
Crying, moaning, fragrant cangote for us to smell
Oh, damned fole
Crying, moaning, moaning, crying wanting to cry
Oh, damned fole
Crying, moaning, pretty girl for us to dance (bis)
I already snuggled up to the sanfoneiro
And I dancing with my girlfriend
The oil lamp is dying out
Cabroeira dancing animatedly
It's sweat, it's dust, it's smoke
A high-quality sanfona from a good musician
If I doze off and get dengo
It's a fragrant cangote that my love has
Oh, damned fole
Crying, moaning, moaning, crying wanting to cry
Oh, damned fole
Crying, moaning, fragrant cangote for us to smell
Oh, damned fole
Crying, moaning, moaning, crying wanting to cry
Oh, damned fole
Crying, moaning, pretty girl for us to dance (bis)
