Full lyrics
No forró da gente só entra quem ama
Quem balança o corpo, quem esquenta dama
Quem gosta de machucar bonitinho
Agarrado, coladinho no chamego da sanfona
É no forró da gente que tem muita animação
Quando um cabra enxerido passa o pé pela mão
É na escuridão, mulher tem de montão
Deixando a rapaziada doida no salão
Com o chinelo no chão
Levantando o poeirão
Levantando o poeirão
Com o chinelo no chão
Translation
In our forró only those who love enter
Who sways their body, who warms up a lady
Who likes to dance intimately
Held tight, very close in the sanfona's tenderness
It's in our forró that there's a lot of excitement
When a bold cabra shows off his footwork
It's in the darkness, there are women aplenty
Leaving the young crowd crazy on the dance floor
With the sandal on the ground
Kicking up the dust
Kicking up the dust
With the sandal on the ground
