When my baby, when my baby smiles at me i go to rio de janeiro
my-oh me-oh
i go wild then i have to do the samba, then 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 beat of my heart
when my baby, when my baby smiles at me
i go to rio, de janeiro
me salsa fellow
when my baby smiles at me
she shines the lanterns of 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 the bungalow
while monkeys play above-a
we'll make love-a
now i'm not the type to let vibrations
tickle my imagination easily
you know that's just not me
but i turn into a tiger every time i'm beside the one i love
