Full lyrics

Tá é danado de bom

Tá danado de bom meu compade

Tá é danado de bom

Forrozinho bonitinho,

Gostosinho, safadinho,

Danado de bom


Olha o natamira na zabumba

O zé cupira no triângulo

E mariano no gonguê

Olha meu compadre na viola

Meu sobrinho na manola

E cipriano no melê


Olha a meninada nas cuié

Tá sobrando capilé

E já tem bêbo pra daná,

Tem nego grudado que nem piolho

Tem nega piscando o olho

Me chamando pra dançar


Tá é danado de bom

Tá danado de bom meu compade

Tá é danado de bom

Forrozinho bonitinho,

Gostosinho, safadinho,

Danado de bom


Tá, que forrozinho de primeira

Já num cabe forrozeiro

E cada vez chegando mais

Tá, da cozinha e do terreiro,

Sanfoneiro, zabumbeiro

Pra frente e pra trás


Olha meu compadre damião

Pode apagar o lampeão

Que tá querendo clarear

Agüenta o fole meu compadre bororó

Que esse é o tipo de forró

Que não tem hora pra parar

Translation

It's damn good

It's damn good, my friend

It's damn good

A pretty little forró,

Pleasant, naughty,

Damn good


Look at Natamira on the zabumba

Zé Cupira on the triangle

And Mariano on the gonguê

Look at my friend on the viola

My nephew on the manola

And Cipriano on the melê


Look at the kids on the spoons

There's plenty of capilé

And there are already drunks to dance a lot,

There are guys stuck like lice

There are girls winking

Calling me to dance


It's damn good

It's damn good, my friend

It's damn good

A pretty little forró,

Pleasant, naughty,

Damn good


Yes, what a first-class forró

There's no more room for forrozeiros

And more keep arriving

Yes, from the kitchen and the yard,

Sanfoneiro, zabumbeiro

Back and forth


Look, my friend Damião

You can turn off the lamp

Because it's getting light

Keep playing the accordion, my friend Bororó

Because this is the kind of forró

That has no time to stop
