Tickets To Rio

Day in day out, it's finally gettin' to me
Lately, it's sure been a long, hard grind
Baby, I've been thinkin' how nice it could be
To wake up in the morning and leave it all behind

Just you and me in Rio de Janeiro
Passports ready and I'm packin' to go
Catch a jet airplane and fly like a sparrow
Maybe we never will come back
I just don't know

Lyin' on the Copa sands, brownin' in the sunshine
Drinkin' Cuba libres, just me and you
Strollin' in the marketplace, we can let it all unwind
Speaking Portuguesa if we need to

Just you and me in Rio de Janeiro
Passports ready and I'm packin' to go
Catch a jet airplane and fly like a sparrow
Maybe we never will come back
I just don't know

We can do our bodies up in feather and paint
It's the Carnival holiday
And while the natives chant to Macumba Saints
We'll be makin' love, baby (we'll be makin' love)
We'll be makin' love in our Brazilian hideaway

Just you and me in Rio de Janeiro
Passports ready and I'm packin' to go
Catch a jet airplane and fly like a sparrow
Maybe we never will come back
I just don't know
Maybe we never will come back
I just don't know

We can do the samba and the fandango
I'll be giddily with oba, baby, no one will know
