Full lyrics

O batalhão, tá lhe chamando

Estou aqui, seu Coroné

Tatatá, tatatá, tatá

Olha a bóia

Tatatá, tatatá, tatá

Gororoba

Recruta tá tocando rancho

É o primeiro toque

Que se aprende no quarté


No tempo certo

Fiz o meu alistamento

Tô aqui senhor sargento

Pra fazer a inspeção

Quero servir

Ao exército brasileiro

Quero ser logo o primeiro

A entrar no batalhão


No tempo certo

Estarei desembaraçado

Quero ser um bom soldado

Cumpridor do meu dever

Quando sair

Quero ver limpo o meu nome

Falo grosso, sou um homem

Brasileiro pra valer

Translation

The battalion, is calling you

I am here, Mr. Coroné

Tatatá, tatatá, tatatá

Look at the food

Tatatá, tatatá, tatatá

Gororoba

Recruit is sounding the rancho call

It's the first bugle call

That one learns in the barracks


At the right time

I did my enlistment

I am here Mr. Sergeant

To do the inspection

I want to serve

The Brazilian army

I want to be the first right away

To enter the battalion


At the right time

I will be discharged

I want to be a good soldier

Fulfilling my duty

When I leave

I want my name to be clean

I speak boldly, I am a man

A true Brazilian
