[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
Those with big feet don't enter,
those with big feet stay outside!
Only those with small feet can enter
those with big feet I send away!
I went to dance at the forró
at Mané João's house,
it was written on the wall:
"no entry for those with big feet!"
I wear size forty-four
I was passing through the gate,
the guard came shouting
already with a club in hand!
Those with big feet don't enter,
those with big feet stay outside!
Only those with small feet can enter
those with big feet I send away!
Inside, the forró was in full swing
everyone embraced,
I 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!
