Negra melodia
Que vem do sangue do coração
I know how to dance, dance
Like a black, young black
American black do Brás do Brasil
Dance, dance, dance

My baby don't try to stop me
My woman don't cry, everything is gonna be all right

Negra melodia
Que vem do sangue do coração
I know how to dance, dance
Like a black, young black
American black do Brás do Brasil
Dance, dance, dance

My baby don't try to stop me
My woman don't cry, everything is gonna be alright
O meu pisante colorido
O meu barraco lá no morro de São Carlos
Meu cachorro Paraíba, minha cabrocha, minha cocota
A minha mona lá no largo do Estácio de Sá
Forget troubles, dance
Forget your sorrows, dance
Forget your sickness, dance
Forget your weakness, dance
Reggae is another bag
