Full lyrics
É coco de roda, não é catolé
É coco menina, menina mulher
Roda esse coco deixa o coco balançar
Esse coco maneiro não canto pra enganar
Bate o pandeiro balance o ganzá
Morena levante a saia e deixa os homens se babar
Babar, babar, babou
Não toque nessa morena
Que ela é o meu amor
Translation
It's coco de roda, it's not catolé
It's coco girl, woman girl
Spin this coco, let the coco swing
This cool coco, I don't sing to deceive
Beat the tambourine, shake the ganzá
Brunette, lift your skirt and let the men drool
Drool, drool, drooled
Don't touch that brunette
Because she is my love
Drool, drool, drooled
Don't touch that brunette
Because she is my love
