You play the samba the way you want, man
I wanna play it, I wanna play it the way I want
You play the samba like a bamba
You play the samba like a punk
You play the samba with the conga
You play the samba like you're nut
(You're being to methodic, man)
You play the samba like a black, white or red
You play the samba as you want
You play the samba like a black, white or red
You play the samba in your head
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, whatever)
You play the samba softly
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, whatever)
You play the samba hard
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, whatever)
Play the samba very hot
Like you never wanna stop
(You play whatever you wanna play)
You play the samba with a funk rhythm flavor
You play it like you wanna dance
You play the samba like a bossanova babe
Because you want romance
My samba is gonna take you to Bahia, Salvador
The cradle of love is calling you
My samba is gonna spread my love around
Around the clock
My samba is gonna rock you all night long
Play samba de partido alto (What is that?)
Play samba like americano
Play samba na ponta do salto
Lá na casa de fulano
So you can hear the crazy beat (Just go!)
So come on and move your feet
Everybody feels the heat
The whole world gonna samba
My samba is gonna take you to Bahia, Salvador
The cradle of love is calling you
My samba is gonna spread my love around
Around the clock
My samba is gonna rock you all night long
Come one, SAMBA!
