Full lyrics
Santo Antonio casa
São João batiza
Pra entrar no céu
São Pedro é quem autoriza
Eu vou me pregar ao meu Santo Antonio
Pra realizar o meu matrimonio
Eu quero o batismo do meu São João
Embora não seja no rio jordão
Vou pedir para São Pedro um chaveiro do céu
Fazer-me feliz na lua de mel
Translation
Saint Anthony marries
Saint John baptizes
To enter heaven
Saint Peter is the one who authorizes
I will cling to my Saint Anthony
To realize my marriage
I want the baptism of my Saint John
Although it may not be in the Jordan River
I will ask Saint Peter for a key-keeper of heaven
To make me happy on my honeymoon
