Sam the Samba Man
[Intro]
Sam the Samba man, I live in Samab land
Sam the Samba man, catch me if you can
[verse 1]
I met him in Rio
He was dancing alone by the sea
When I asked was he free
He just looked straight at me
[pre-Chorus]
And he danced on and on
The music carried me to where I'd never gone
And he stole my heart away, oh round and round
And as the sound of his song filled the sunny day
This is what he said to me
[Chorus]
I'm Sam the Samba man
And I live in Samba land
Sam the Samba man
Catch me if you can
I'm Sam the Samba man
And I live in Samba land
Sam the Samba man
Catch me if you can
[verse 2]
I went back to Rio
There was nobody down by the sea
When I asked where was he oh
Nobody listened to me
[pre-Chorus]
So I danced on and on
The music carried me to where I once had gone
When he stole my heart away, oh round and round
And as the sound of his song filled the sunny day
This is what he said to me
[Chorus]
I'm Sam the Samba man
I live in Samba land
Sam the Samba man
Catch me if you can
I'm Sam the Samba man
And I live in Samba land
Sam the Samba man
Catch me if you can
[Bridge]
So I danced on and on
And as the sound of his song filled the sunny day
This is what he said to me
[Chorus]
I'm Sam the Samba man
And I live in Samba land
Sam the Samba man
Catch me if you can
I'm Sam the Samba man
And I live in Samba land
Sam the Samba man
Catch me if you can
