Full lyrics
No meu pé de serra
Na sombra do juazeiro
Eu passo o dia inteiro
Pra ver ela passar
Mas ela não vem
E eu fico esperando
Sozinho, matutando
Aguardando por meu bem...
E toda quinta-feira
Tem arrastapé
Vixe, quanta mulher
E quanta brincadeira
Vai amanhecendo o dia
E eu fico esperando
Sozinho, matutando
Mas não vem quem eu queria
Oh tanta malvaldeza,
Faça isso comigo não
Se tem tanta certeza
Que é teu meu coração
Na outra quinta-feira
Passe logo, bem cedinho
Tô louco por teus carinho
Pra dançar um forrozão!
Translation
In my pé de serra
In the shade of the juazeiro
I spend the whole day
To see her pass by
But she doesn't come
And I keep waiting
Alone, pondering
Waiting for my love...
And every Thursday
There's an arrastapé
Wow, so many women
And so much fun
The day is dawning
And I keep waiting
Alone, pondering
But the one I wanted doesn't come
Oh, such wickedness,
Don't do this to me
If you are so sure
That my heart is yours
Next Thursday
Pass by soon, very early
I'm crazy for your affection
To dance a big forrozão!
