Down in Brazil It 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
