Pelas horas do bendito
Louvado seja o velho chico
Louvado seja o velho chico
Espelho d’agua se move manso
Feito notícia boa do remanso
Pelas benditas horas
Seja louvado o velho chico
Seu arraial do bom Jesus da lapa santa
Tanto padroado, tanto padroeiro
Tanto milagre, tanto milagreiro
Tanta promessa, tanto promesseiro
Tanto romeiro, tanta romaria
Tanto Jesus, tanta maria
Tanto devoto, tanta devoção
Tanta reza, tanta procissão
Mas quedê, quedê o dono dessa casa
Quedê seu oratório
Quedê, quedê adjuntório
De antônio casamenteiro
Bota o pavio no candeeiro
Acende a festa no terreiro
E vem contar história de bicho d’agua
Ai quedê, quedê o dono dessa casa
De tanta casa taiada
Tanta viola tocada
Tanta canoa enfeitada já vi
Com a carranca de francisco guarani
Mas quedê, quedê o dono dessa casa
Quedê seu oratório
Quedê, quedê adjuntório
De antônio casamenteiro
Bota o pavio no candeeiro
Acende a festa no terreiro
E vem contar história de bicho d’agua
Ai quedê, quedê o dono dessa casa
Seu arraial do bom Jesus da lapa santa
