Lyrics Brazzaville

Brazzaville

Sandman

Hills facing east

The slums have a view

Of the sea

Towards Africa gaze

Tenderly

The rains last for weeks

1st of the year

We’ll meet in Flamengo

For tea

We’ll smoke cigarettes

By the sea

Sandman & me

Menina dengosa

Nao chore amor

A vida e saudade

Beleza e dor

La da Palestrina

Morre o cantor

Word on the street

Jorge Ben’s gonna sing

New Year’s Eve

In Rio the rains

Last for weeks

The rains last for weeks
