Tangerine
Johnny Mercer, Victor Schertzinger
There's legend in Creole
About a girl who's quite a dream
And so I went to see
'Til I landed in Rio
I thought the tale was a bit extreme
But I'm forced to agree
Tangerine, she is all they claim
With her eyes at night
And lips as bright as flames
Tangerine, when she dances by
Señoritas stare and caballeros spar
And I've seen close to Tangerine
Praised in every part across the Argentine
Yes, she has them all on the run
But her heart belongs to just one
Her heart belongs to just Tangerine
Yes, she has them all on the run
But her heart belongs to just one
Her heart belongs to Tangerine
