When my baby, when my baby smiles at me
I go to Rio De Janeiro, my oh, me oh
I go wild and then I have to do the
Samba and La Bamba
Now I'm not the kind of person
With a passionate persuasion for dancin' or romancin'
But I give in to the rhythm
And my feet follow the beatin' of my heart
Whoa, when my baby, when my baby smiles at me
I go to Rio De Janeiro, I'm a salsa fellow
When my baby smiles at me the sun'll lightens up my life
And I am free at last, what a blast
Whoa, when my baby, when my baby smiles at me
I feel like Tarzan of the jungle
There on the hot sand and in a bungalow
While monkeys play above, we make love
Now, I'm not the type to let vibrations trigger my imagination easily
You know that's just not me but I turn into a tiger
Every time I get beside the one I love
Whoa, whoa, whoa, Rio, Rio, Rio
Whoa, when my baby, when my baby smiles at me
I go to Rio De Janeiro, I'm a salsa fellow
When my baby smiles at me the sun'll lightens up my life
And I am free at last, what a blast
When my baby, when my baby smiles at me
I go to Rio, that's when I go to Rio
Rio, Rio De Janeiro, Rio, Rio, Rio
