Full lyrics
O bom da festa se tiver licor
E um balaio cheio de cajú
E muitas moças para se dançar
E um bom tira gosto de pirarucu
Fui numa festa lá em Nazaré
Tava animado boa pra xuxu
Os convidados ficaram gamado
Pelo tira gosto de pirarucu
O meu vizinho é grande dançarino
Foi num pagode em Caruaru
Chegando lá trocou a sua dama
Pelo tira gosto de pirarucu
Translation
The good thing about the party if there's liquor
And a basket full of cashews
And many girls to dance with
And a good appetizer of pirarucu
I went to a party there in Nazaré
It was lively, really good
The guests became smitten
By the appetizer of pirarucu
My neighbor is a great dancer
He went to a pagode in Caruaru
Arriving there, he swapped his lady
For the appetizer of pirarucu
