blame it on the samba - ethel smith lyrics
[verse 1]
if your spirits have hit a new low
and they long to hit a new high
one little musical c*cktail
will lift them to the sky
[verse 2]
mix a jigger of rhythm
with a strain of a few guitars
and a dash of the samba
and a few melodious bars
[stretch]
and then, and then…
[chorus]
you take a small cabassa (chi*chi*chi*chi*chi)
one pandeiro (cha*cha*cha*cha*cha)
take the cuíca (boom*boom*boom*boom)
you’ve got the fascinating rhythm of the samba
[verse 3]
and if guitars are strumming (chi*chi*chi*chi*chi)
birds are humming (cha*cha*cha*cha*cha)
drums are drumming (boom*boom*boom*boom)
then you can blame it on the rhythm of the samba
[verse 4]
for there is something ’bout the beat you cling to
that’s the type of song you sing to
that’s the kind of thing you swing to
when you get to bouncing with the beat in your feet
[verse 5]
but when you’re bouncing to the beat you’re reeling
with the carioca feeling
but if you want to hit the ceiling
here is all you have to do
[chorus]
you take a small cabassa
one pandeiro
take the cuíca
you’ve got the fascinating rhythm of the samba
