Full lyrics
Vou passar meu São João na roça
Na casa do seu coroné
Pode preparar a fogueira seu doutor
E um grande arrastapé
Vou lavar um crapinote
Uma riuna e uma complê
E um velho bacamarte,
Vou roubar a filha do coroné
Translation
I'm going to spend my Saint John's Festival in the countryside
At Mr. Colonel's house
You can prepare the bonfire, Mr. Doctor
And a big lively dance party
I'm going to wash a small tie
A dress and a suit
And an old blunderbuss,
I'm going to steal the colonel's daughter
