Full lyrics
Rosinha vai com João
Chiquinha com Mane
Eu vou com a bochechuda
Pra dançar o arrasta-pé
E as moçada vão gritando
Acorda João
E as meninada vão gritando
Acorda João
E as velha vão gritando
Acorda João
Quero vê tudo juntinho
Dançando num só rojão
Translation
Rosinha goes with João
Chiquinha with Mane
I go with the chubby one
To dance the arrasta-pé
And the young people are shouting
Wake up João
And the girls are shouting
Wake up João
And the old women are shouting
Wake up João
I want to see everyone together
Dancing in one big bonfire
