Full lyrics

Meu velho pai já dizia

Meu fío tome cuidado

Muito cuidado, muito cuidado

É preciso ter cuidado

Pouca moça na festa

Tocador desembesta

Muié pensa o que não presta

E homem fica azuado


E a cabroeira

Faz servegonheira

E vira bandeira é no fobó

Acabou-se a festa, o povo todo se foi

Ou foi num foi

Acabou com o forró

Translation

My old father used to say

My son, be careful

Very careful, very careful

It's necessary to be careful

Few girls at the party

Musician goes wild

Woman thinks what is no good

And man gets dizzy


And the cabroeira

Does shameful things

And it becomes a spectacle at the fobó

The party ended, all the people left

Or it was, or it wasn't

It ended the forró
