Paroles et traduction Ivan Lins - Forró Do Largo

Forró Do Largo

No forró do largo
Foi dançar o xote
Foi cheirar cangote
Foi olhar decote

No forró do largo
Foi usar a força
Foi roubar a moça
Miss do bate-coxa

Hum-hum-hum, miss do bate-coxa
Hum-hum-hum, miss do bate-coxa

Era melindrosa
De andar forçado
Cabelo dourado
E um riso no rosto

E pelo fricote
Parecia trote
Pela resistência
Ela foi por gosto

Hum-hum-hum, ela foi por gosto
Hum-hum-hum, ela foi por gosto

Do forró do largo
Foram pra arruaça
Ver como mistura
Batom e cachaça

Do forró do largo
Foram para o mato
Se grudaram tanto
Feito carrapato

Hum-hum-hum, feito carrapato
Hum-hum-hum, feito carrapato

Se amaram tanto
Que acordou sem boca
Se assaltaram tanto
Que acordou sem roupa

Acordou na praça
Com um vira-lata
Preparando o banho
Levantando a pata

Ai, ai, ai, levantando a pata
Ai, ai, ai, levantando a pata

Do forró do largo
O que lhe restou
Foi o tito' de eleitor
Que ninguém quis lhe roubar

E que naquela hora
Lhe valeu o que vale agora
Hum-hum-hum, e o que vale agora?
Hum-hum-hum, e o que vale agora?
Hum-hum-hum, e o que vale agora?

Hum-hum-hum, e o que vale agora?
Hum-hum-hum, e o que vale agora?
Hum-hum-hum, e o que vale agora?

Hum-hum-hum, o que vale agora?
Hum-hum-hum, o que vale agora?
Hum-hum-hum, o que vale agora?

Forró Do Largo

At the square's forró
I went to dance xote
I went to sniff necks
I went to look at cleavage

At the square's forró
I went to use force
I went to steal the girl
Miss Thigh-Slapper

Hum-hum-hum, Miss Thigh-Slapper
Hum-hum-hum, Miss Thigh-Slapper

She was a coquette
With a forced walk
Golden hair
And a smile on her face

And by the friction
It looked like a trot
By the resistance
She went out of taste

Hum-hum-hum, she went out of taste
Hum-hum-hum, she went out of taste

From the square's forró
They went to the street
To see how it mixes
Lipstick and cachaça

From the square's forró
They went into the forest
They stuck together so much
Like a tick

Hum-hum-hum, like a tick
Hum-hum-hum, like a tick

They loved each other so much
That I woke up without a mouth
They mugged each other so much
That I woke up without clothes

I woke up in the square
With a stray dog
Preparing the bath
Lifting its paw

Oh, oh, oh, lifting its paw
Oh, oh, oh, lifting its paw

From the square's forró
What was left of it
Was the election registration number
That nobody wanted to steal from you

And at that time
It was worth what it is worth now
Hum-hum-hum, and what is it worth now?
Hum-hum-hum, and what is it worth now?
Hum-hum-hum, and what is it worth now?

Hum-hum-hum, and what is it worth now?
Hum-hum-hum, and what is it worth now?
Hum-hum-hum, and what is it worth now?

Hum-hum-hum, what is it worth now?
Hum-hum-hum, what is it worth now?
Hum-hum-hum, what is it worth now?
