Full lyrics

Forró na casa de Tomé

Ninguém pode reclamar

Todo mundo agarradinho

Até o dia clarear


No resfulego da sanfona todo mundo vem olhar

A blusinha da morena de suor chega a pintar

Na batida da zabumba todo mundo vêm olhar

A blusinha da morena de suor chega a pintar

Tinguelingue do triangulo todo mundo vem olhar

A blusinha da morena de suor chega a pintar


Chega a pintar, chega a pintar

A blusinha da morena de suor chega a pintar


Lá na casa de Tomé só não brinca quem não quer

Velho, menina e moça todo mundo arrasta o pé

Translation

Forró at Tomé's house

Nobody can complain

Everyone hugging tight

Until the day breaks


To the panting of the accordion everyone comes to look

The dark-haired girl's blouse even gets painted by sweat

To the beat of the zabumba everyone comes to look

The dark-haired girl's blouse even gets painted by sweat

To the ting-a-ling of the triangle everyone comes to look

The dark-haired girl's blouse even gets painted by sweat


It even gets painted, it even gets painted

The dark-haired girl's blouse even gets painted by sweat


There at Tomé's house only those who don't want to don't dance

Old man, girl and young woman everyone drags their feet
