Carioca Girl Songtext
von GANGgajang

From up in the mountains
You can see the beaches lying in the sun
Copacabana to Leblon
And daily, you go there
Knowing you will see a vision when she comes
Walking straight out of a Jobim song
You can′t help but stop and stare
Olive skin and ribbon hair
With a voice like angels wings, she casts her spell
Oh yeah

She's a carioca girl
Walks like an angel, talks like an angel
Carioca girl, yeah, she takes your breath away
She′s a carioca girl
Walks like an angel


Slowly the night falls
As Corcovado looks down on the scene below
And music spills from the street cafes
Gilberto Gil playing
The songs, they seem to resonate with life and love
In the Brazillian way
And you see her dancing there
As she seems to float on air
With a rhythm divine, she can leave life behind
The way that she moves transcends time, you can tell

She's a carioca girl
Walks like an angel, talks like an angel
Carioca girl, yeah, she takes your breath away
Carioca girl
Carioca girl, yeah yeah

And you see her dancing there
How she seems to float on air, oh yeah

She's a carioca girl
Walks like an angel, talks like an angel
Carioca girl, yeah, she takes your breath away
She′s a carioca girl
Walks like an angel, talks like an angel
Carioca girl
Yeah yeah, she takes your breath away

You see the way she moves you see those smiling eyes
You see the sound of Rio, you see it in her eyes
You hear the sound of Rio, in her eyes
