Funky Bahia

Bahia Bahia Salvador

Funky Bahia ooo

Layalayalay ooo

Layalayalay ooo

Layalayalay ooo

Layalayalay ooo

Would you take me out for dancing?

Dancing on the floor

I'll be out in Rio

Dancing at the disco

Girls'd be lookin' sexy

Dressin' mighty fine

Baby dancing funky

Happening start the good time (?)

I'll be steppin out

To paint the town

And party the night away

I'll be dancin'

I'll be groovin'

And I'm gonna do it

Because the drummer make me do it

Make me do it to the way that he play

Layalayalay ooo

Layalayalay ooo

Layalayalay ooo

Layalayalay ooo

Ooo ooo layaylayay

Ooo ooo layaylayay

Ooo ooo layaylayay

Ooo ooo layaylayay

Would you take me to the party

Party with the world

Dancing in the ghetto

Knowing as Favelas

Come on everybody

Won't you feel the joy

Music is the potion

Travellin' from coast to coast in

I'll be steppin' out around the world

Washing the pain away

You'll be dancin

You'll be groovin'

And you will do it

because the drummer make you do it

make you do it to the way that he play

Layalayalay ooo

Layalayalay ooo

Layalayalay ooo

Layalayalay ooo

Ooo ooo layaylayay

Ooo ooo layaylayay

Ooo ooo layaylayay

Ooo ooo layaylayay
