Full lyrics
Sanfoneiro, toque o xote
Toque o xote que eu quero xotear
Nesse xote, eu danço a noite inteira
Xoteando para o povo apreciar bis
Dançar xote
Com quem sabe é bom demais
Tenho certeza que dança melhor não há
Por isso, eu peço
Sanfoneiro toque xote, toque o xote
Toque o xote, que eu quero xotear

Translation
Accordion player, play the xote
Play the xote because I want to dance xote
In this xote, I dance the whole night
Dancing xote for the people to appreciate
To dance xote
With someone who knows how is too good
I'm sure there's no better dance
That's why I ask
Accordion player play xote, play the xote
Play the xote, because I want to dance xote
