Full lyrics
Eu vo contar pra todo mundo
Do norte ou do sul
Que lá no nordeste sapo chama cururu
E o Irapuã numa noite de São João
Faltou o tira gosto e ele gritou no salão
Cadê o cururu, traz ele ai que eu quero vê
Cadê o cururu, traz ele ai que eu vo comer
Trouxeram o tira gosto de galinha e de peru
Mais irapua só queria cururu
Dançou a noite inteira
E bem cedinho no terreiro
Queria chupar umbu
Balançando o cajueiro
Translation
I'm going to tell everyone
From the north or the south
That in the northeast the toad calls cururu
And the Irapuã on a Saint John's night
The appetizer was missing and he shouted in the hall
Where is the cururu, bring him here I want to see
Where is the cururu, bring him here I want to eat
They brought the appetizer of chicken and turkey
But Irapua only wanted cururu
He danced all night long
And early in the morning in the yard
He wanted to suck umbu
Shaking the cashew tree
