Full lyrics

Este ano eu vou brincar o São João em Caruaru

Pra saber contar o que comentam aqui no sul

Que o melhor São João da região é feito lá

30 dias de festa dia e noite sem parar


Em Caruaru, é lá

Em Caruaru. É lá

O São João é melhor,

Bem melhor em Caruaru


Quero que as moreninhas, molhadinhas de suor

Arrastando o chinelo e a poeira dando um nó

E o cavalheiros pedindo para descansar

Elas não aprendem e diz não pode cochilar

Translation

This year I'm going to celebrate São João in Caruaru

To know how to tell what they say here in the south

That the best São João of the region is held there

30 days of party day and night without stopping


In Caruaru, it's there

In Caruaru. It's there

The São João is better,

Much better in Caruaru


I want the dark-haired girls, soaked in sweat

Dragging their sandals and the dust swirling

And the gentlemen asking to rest

They don't learn and say you can't nap
