J. J. Cale – Rio lyrics
Rio de Janeiro
Hot wind of brazilian nights
Rio de Janeiro
I tip my sombrero on a tan girl in the moonlight
Their close encounters make a man
Feel just right
Rio de Janeiro
The steamy place
That you are
Rio de Janeiro
I've come to love you from afar
To touch the water of your sea
Feel your sensuality
Walk your boulevards
Sao Paulo, Brazilia
I've been there before
They make me think of just a girl next door
They don't have your sexual groove
Rio, Rio puts me in that mood
Rio de Janeiro
Your sultry rythms get me up
Rio de Janeiro
If I could drink from your cup
I need a shot
Your pulse is hot
Rio, Rio you're so corrupt
I'm just a lonely caballero
I'm just a lonely, lonely man
I'm just a lonely caballero
Tryin' to make it to your land
Rio de Janeiro
Rio de Janeiro
To touch the water of your sea
Feel your sensuality
Walk your boulevards
