This is from an older album of ours, listen
Say, have you seen a Carioca?
It's not a foxtrot or a polka
It's got a little bit of new rhythm
A blue rhythm that sighs
It's a meter that is tricky
A kind of wicked wacky-wicky
When you dance it with each new love
There'll true love in her eyes
You'll dream of a new Carioca
Its theme is a kiss and a sigh
Go, go, go, go, go, go dream of the new Carioca
When music and lights are gone and we're saying goodbye
Sha-doddle-doyo-diddle-doo-do
Sha-doba-doba-dibo-do-da-da-da-daa
Two hearts together, that's how the dance is begun
Two heads together are better than one
Two arms around you, lips that say you're mine
That's why we Carioca 'til the brink of day
That's the Carioca way
Chatta-boya-diddle-doo-do
Ah-doba-doba-dibo-do-da-da-da-daa
(That'll be in a polsa)
Now that you've done the Carioca
You'll never care to do the polka
And then you'll realize the blue hula of bamboola are through
Tomorrow morning you'll discover
You're just a Carioca lover
And when you dance it with each new love
There'll be true love just for you
You'll dream of a new Carioca
Its theme is a kiss and a sigh
Go, go, go, go, go, go dream of a new Carioca
When music and lights are gone and we're saying goodbye
My love for you cannot die
Long as you and I follow through, learn to do
The Carioca
The Carioca
(Yeah)
(Yeah)
