Down In Brazil lyrics by Michael Franks
Down in BrazilIt takes a day to walk a mile
Time just stands still
And when the people you
meet look at you, they smile
They still believe in style
They soothe you
with their summers
till you really know you're
down in old Brazil
You can tell you're
down in old Brazil
Down in Brazil,
they never heard
of win or lose
If you can't feel that all
those cafe a'u~lait girls
in high heel shoes
will really cure your blues
It seems they all
just aim to please
Those women sway like
wind in banana trees
Then you know you're
down in old Brazil
Down in Brazil,
they know a million
ways to play
You start to feel
And when you're happy,
it's the same as
when you pray
You think you'll get away
Then you know you never will
Not when you've been
down in old Brazil
Not when you are
down in old Brazil
Down in old Brazil
Down in old Brazil
Down in old Brazil
Down in old Brazil
Down in old Brazil
Down in old Brazil
