Full lyrics
Forró que não tem dono todo mundo manda
Depois de meia noite apaga o lampião
Mulher que não tem dono todo mundo pega
Mulher que tem marido ninguém põe a mão
Tem camarada que tem a mulher bonita
Só pra fazer fita leva ela no forró
Eu vejo a hora que naquela confusão
Se apaga o lampião e o sujeito fica só
Vou no forró mais não levo mariquinha
Quem quiser que leve a sua, eu não levo a minha
Enquanto lá em casa dorme a minha mulherzinha
Passo a noite no forró agarrado na vizinha
Translation
Forró that has no owner, everyone commands
After midnight, turn off the lamp
Woman who has no owner, everyone takes
Woman who has a husband, no one lays a hand on
There are comrades who have a beautiful woman
Just to show off, he takes her to the forró
I see the hour when in that confusion
The lamp goes out and the guy is left alone
I'm going to the forró but I'm not taking a little wife
Whoever wants to, take yours, I'm not taking mine
While at home my little wife sleeps
I spend the night at the forró holding onto the neighbor
