Full lyrics
Toque, Toque, Toque, Toque, Toque,
Um forro assim
Toque, Toque, Toque, Toque, Toque,
Um forro pra mim
Toda noite na gandaia
No maior forro que há
Menina sacode a saia
Deixa o corpo balançar
Uma noite não é nada
O som então é menino
Ainda esta chegando gente
Mais ninguém ta saindo
Sei que esta ficando bom
Esta ficando melhor
A menina esta suando
Da cintura ao mocotó
E ninguém fica sozinho
Ninguém pode cochilar
E o povo esta pedindo pro sanfoneiro não parar
Translation
Play, Play, Play, Play, Play,
A forró like this
Play, Play, Play, Play, Play,
A forró for me
Every night in the revelry
At the biggest forró there is
Girl, shake your skirt
Let your body sway
One night is nothing
The sound then is young
People are still arriving
But no one is leaving
I know it's getting good
It's getting better
The girl is sweating
From waist to feet
And no one is alone
No one can doze off
And the people are asking the sanfoneiro not to stop
