Full lyrics
Esse tocador é uma miadeira
Não sai dessa besteira
Só sabe tocar em dó, óó...
A gente nem se bole
Mesmo tomando um gole
Não esquenta esse forró, óó...
Vou me embora dessa dança
Que aqui num se balança
Nem se molha de suor
O cabra que é bom no dedo
Toca sem olhar pro dedo
Chega o fole faz um ó... }bis
Aí, a gente vai
Escorregando o pé
A poeira levanta
Vai tomando mé
Vai tomando mé
Engolindo pó
Pega na cintura da morena
E dá um nó } bis
Translation
This musician is a bore
Doesn't get out of this nonsense
Only knows how to play in C, ohh...
We don't even move
Even taking a sip
Doesn't heat up this forró, ohh...
I'm leaving this dance
Because here one doesn't sway
Nor get wet with sweat
The cabra who is good with their fingers
Plays without looking at their fingers
The fole even makes an oh... }bis
Then, we go
Sliding our feet
The dust rises
Goes drinking cachaça
Goes drinking cachaça
Swallowing dust
Grabs the morena's waist
And ties a knot } bis
