Full lyrics
Eu quero sorriso
Eu quero alegria
Eu quero voltar
Pra minha Bahia
Eu quero me cansar
Eu quero sapatear
Eu quero ver loucura
E o fole forrolear
Dançando de colote
Cochilando no cangote
Bêbado de demagode
De tanto copo virar
Eu quero sorriso
Eu quero alegria
Eu quero voltar
Pra minha Bahia
Eu quero Ter
Um mundão de paz
A benção do senhor
Eu quero todo dia
Eu quero Ter Maria
Eu quero muita grana
Para todo fim de semana
Poder fazer folia
Translation
I want a smile
I want joy
I want to return
To my Bahia
I want to get tired
I want to tap dance
I want to see madness
And the fole play forró
Dancing hip to hip
Napping on the nape
Drunk on demagogue
From turning so many glasses
I want a smile
I want joy
I want to return
To my Bahia
I want to have
A vast world of peace
The Lord's blessing
I want every day
I want to have Maria
I want a lot of money
For every weekend
To be able to make folia
