Letra de ' Batucada (feat. Harry James) ' de Carmen Miranda

There’s one thing in Rio De
That always amazes me
With no inhibitions
Latin musicians
Really go on a spree

They made a Cabaça shake
Till it has a tummy ache

They squeeze the cuíca
Poor old cuíca
Wonder it doesn’t break

That little pandeiro thing
Get oddy: Zinga-zinga-zinga
They wreck it without a heart
You’ll thing you’ll fall apart

I’ve heard Reco-Recos crape
Like waves on a sandy cape

The square tambourino
Let’s out a scream
Played till it lose its shape

And when they blow a horn
You know where they were born
You haven’t lived till
You hear a jam session in Brazil

The Batucadah
It’s shipping from Brazil

The Batucadah
The ladies dance and trill

The Batucadah
A new Brazilian Jive

The Batucadah
It’s makes you feel alive

Senhoritas who
Used to do
All the sambas and the marchas
Won’t even look at you
Unless you do
The newest thing to keep falling arches

The Batucadah
Will really makes you hop
And once you do it
You’ll never ever stop
It has a movement
Just like the Cuckoo Clock
It’s stop the traffic
On ever Rio block

Way down the Rio De
The latest craze you’ll see
My friend it’s gonna be yeah

The Batucadah!

A Batucadah é um batuque do baboon-le-le
(She means to say the Batucadah shoos the blues away)
A Batucadah é uma batida do balacuchê
(Balacuchê is when you try the South American Way)

A Batucadah!

Harry james
The Batucada’s jumps like a jumping Jack
(It has a beat beaten off the beaten track)
The Batucadah!
(A Batucadah!)
The Batucadah!
(A Batucadah!)
The Batucadah!
(A Batucadah!)

Carmen Miranda
Batuca batuca e samba que agora está quente?
Batendo a batida que bole que bole cá gente?

Way down the Rio De
The latest craze you’ll see
My friend it’s gonna be
The Batucadah!
