Full lyrics

Fui num forró na casa do velho Antero

Que lá me deram uma garota pra dançar

Mais a danada tinha um tal de rebolado

Eu fiquei desconfiado e mesmo assim eu fui dançar


Ai deu, tamanha confusão

Foi deu, no meio do salão


No meio da festa começou a confusão

O pau comeu lá no meio do salão

Larguei a dama e fiquei apreciando

O pau comendo arroxado e muita gente apanhando


No outro dia só ouvia o comentário

Que a briga era porque eu tava dançando

Não tenho culpa pois sou um rapaz direito

A dama que é sem jeito só dança se requebrando

Translation

I went to a forró at old Antero's house

Where they gave me a girl to dance with

But the rascal had such a sway

I became suspicious and even so I went to dance


Oh, what a big confusion

It happened, in the middle of the dance hall


In the middle of the party the confusion started

The fight broke out there in the middle of the dance hall

I left the lady and stayed appreciating

The fight going hard and many people getting beaten


The next day I only heard the comment

That the fight was because I was dancing

I'm not to blame because I'm a decent guy

The lady who is awkward only dances by swaying her hips
