[Refrão]
Quem tem pezão não entra,
quem tem pezão fica de fora!
Só entra quem tem pé pequeno
quem tem o pé grande eu mando embora!
Eu fui dançar no forró
na casa do Mané João,
tava escrito na parede:
"não entra quem tem pezão!"
Eu calço quarenta e quatro
fui passando no portão,
o guarda vinha gritando
já de cacete na mão!
[Refrão]
Lá dentro o forró comendo
todo mundo agarrado,
eu lá de fora escutando
só do chinelo chiado.
Tentei pular o muro
do portão pro outro lado,
quando o guarda me avistou
vinha de cacete armado!
Translation
Whoever has big feet doesn't enter,
whoever has big feet stays outside!
Only those with small feet enter,
whoever has big feet I send away!
I went to dance forró
at Mané João's house,
it was written on the wall:
"no one with big feet enters!"
I wear forty-four
I was passing through the gate,
the guard came shouting
already with a club in hand!
Whoever has big feet doesn't enter,
whoever has big feet stays outside!
Only those with small feet enter,
whoever has big feet I send away!
Inside, the forró was lively
everyone embraced,
I was outside listening
only to the squeak of flip-flops.
I tried to jump the wall
from the gate to the other side,
when the guard spotted me
he came armed with a club!
