  • 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 roma-ancin'
    But I give in to the rhythm
    And my feet follow the beatin' of my hear-eart

    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 li-ife
    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-a
    We-ee make love-a
    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, Rio - Rio
    Yeah Ugh - Rio - Ugh

    Woh-ho-oh-oh, when my ba-a-aby (when my baby)
    When my baby smiles at me I go to Rio (Rio)
    De Janeiro
    I'm a Salsa fellow-ow
    When my baby smiles at me
    The sun'll lightens you-up my li-ife
    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 Janeir-eiro
