Full lyrics
Forró é bicho bom
Bicho bom que é forró
A gente fica só
Da sala pro terreiro
Enquanto o sanfoneiro
Em seu tamboretinho
Tomando uma caninha
Puxando a sanfoninha
Doidím, doidím
Nesse furum, furum, firím
Furum, furum, firím
É no furum, furum, firím
Que a gente deita e rola
É no furum, furum, firím
E o couro come noite a fora
Tome brasa e haja amor
E não há boca de balão
Que aguente a gente
No forró no interior
Translation
Forró is a good thing
A good thing that is forró
We just stay
From the living room to the backyard
While the accordion player
On his little stool
Drinking a little cachaça
Pulling his little accordion
Crazy, crazy
In this furum, furum, firím
Furum, furum, firím
It's in the furum, furum, firím
That we lie down and roll
It's in the furum, furum, firím
And the leather eats all night long
Take embers and let there be love
And there's no balloon mouth
That can stand us
At the forró in the countryside
