Little Black Samba

William Salter, William Eaton, Ralph MacDonald

[Instrumental]

A little black samba, going crazy over you
You're a dream come true

When the samba sound fills up the night
Makes you feel allright
Going crazy over you
Going crazy

A little black samba, going crazy over you
You're a dream come true

When the samba sound fills up the night
Makes you feel allright
Going crazy over you
Going crazy

Verse:
I know a place down in old South America
Right there in the heart of Brazil Bahia
That's where people still have strong ties to Africa
And their music echoes the name Nigeria
Xango (Shango), Piché, Macumba, all tied together by voodoo music
People are on a natural high
Samba spirit is a true testimonial to the power of Africa's ritual

Break:
Every night there's Samba out on the beaches
It's the perfect setting for romance
Let your body dance, it's a Pacanal
With a feeling just like Carnival

Refrain Vocals

Verse:
If your life is missing soul satisfaction
Remember Bahia is waiting to just make it right
Excitement, passion, feeling all come together in
A magic fire burning for you day and night

Break:
Don't you know that Samba's waiting to get you
From the time you hear the music start
It will take your heart, it will take your soul
It will take you if your young or old

Refrain
