Rio De Janeiro

Off To The Airport in a Limousine
I Flipped Through The Pages Of a Magazine
And Right Before My Eyes, Was The Prettiest Place I'd Ever Seen

Beautiful Pictures of Far Off Places
Three-Hundred Million People of Different Races

Is The Gateway To South America
Ooh Ooh Ooh, Rio De Janeiro
Is The Gateway To South America

There's Lots of Lovely Creatures There
Who'd Love To Greet You There
Lots of Lovely Women Just Sunning and-a Swimming on The Beaches There

They Grow a Lot of Coffee Beans
Find Emeralds or Apple Marines
And Every Boys Ambition is Playing For the Soccer Team
