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 dancing or romancing
But I give in to the rhythm
And my feet follow the beating of my heart

Woh-ho-oh-oh, 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

Woh-ho-oh-oh, 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 (Rio)
Trigger my imagination easily (Rio)
You know that's just not me
But I turn into a tiger (Rio)
Everytime I get beside the one I love (Rio)

(Woh, oh, woh, woh-oh, Ri – Rio)
(Yeah - Ugh - Rio – Ugh)

Woh-ho-oh-oh, when my baby (when my baby)
When my baby smiles at me I go to Rio (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)
When my baby smiles at me I go to Rio (Rio)
That's when I go to Rio (Rio)
Rio - Rio De Janeiro
(Rio)
(Rio)
(Rio)
(Rio)
