Full lyrics
Eita que festa alegre é São João e São Pedro
Não tem outra não
Como é gostoso balançar o esqueleto com animação
Tendo sanfoneiro no bolso um dinheiro para festejar
Ninguém fica a toa brinca numa boa até o sol raiar
Apaga o candeeiro, economiza o gás
O claro da fogueira para mim ta bom demais
Translation
Oh, what a joyful celebration São João and São Pedro are
There's no other, no
How delightful it is to shake your bones with enthusiasm
Having a sanfoneiro, money in your pocket to celebrate
Nobody stays idle, everyone has a good time until the sun rises
Turn off the lamp, save the gas
The light from the bonfire is more than enough for me
