Bossa Nova Baby
I said, "Take it easy baby, I worked all day
And my feet feel just like lead
You got my shirt tails flying all over the place
And the sweat popping out of my head"
She said, "Hey Bossa nova baby, keep on a working
But this ain't no time to quit"
She said, "Go Bossa nova baby, keep on dancing
I'm about to have myself a fit"
Bossa nova, Bossa nova
I said, "Hey little mama, let's sit down
And have a drink and dig the band"
She said, "Drink you fink, oh fiddle de dink
I can dance with a drink in my hand"
She said, "Hey Bossa nova baby, keep on working
But this ain't no time to drink"
She said, "Go Bossa nova baby, keep on dancing
I ain't got time to think"
Bossa nova, Bossa nova, baby
Whoo!
Alright fellas, let's go!
Whoo!
Ha-ha-ha-ha
I said, "Take it easy baby, I worked all day
And my feet feel just like lead
You got my shirt tails flying all over the place
And the sweat popping out of my head"
She said, "Hey, Bossa nova baby, keep on a working
But this ain't no time to quit"
She said, "Go, Bossa nova baby, keep on dancing
I'm about to have myself a fit"
Bossa nova, Bossa nova
I said, "Hey little mama, let's sit down
And have a drink and dig the band"
Bossa nova, Bossa nova
I said, "Come on baby, it's hot in here
And it's oh so cool outside
If you lend me a dollar, I can buy some gas
And we can go for a little ride"
She said, "Hey Bossa nova baby, keep on working
I ain't got time for that
She said, "Go Bossa nova baby, keep on dancing
Or I'll find myself another cat"
Bossa nova, Bossa nova, baby
Bossa nova, Bossa nova
And my feet feel just like lead
You got my shirt tails flying all over the place
And the sweat popping out of my head"
She said, "Hey Bossa nova baby, keep on a working
But this ain't no time to quit"
She said, "Go Bossa nova baby, keep on dancing
I'm about to have myself a fit"
Bossa nova, Bossa nova
I said, "Hey little mama, let's sit down
And have a drink and dig the band"
She said, "Drink you fink, oh fiddle de dink
I can dance with a drink in my hand"
She said, "Hey Bossa nova baby, keep on working
But this ain't no time to drink"
She said, "Go Bossa nova baby, keep on dancing
I ain't got time to think"
Bossa nova, Bossa nova, baby
Whoo!
Alright fellas, let's go!
Whoo!
Ha-ha-ha-ha
I said, "Take it easy baby, I worked all day
And my feet feel just like lead

But this ain't no time to quit"
She said, "Go, Bossa nova baby, keep on dancing

Bossa nova, Bossa nova

Bossa nova, Bossa nova, baby
Bossa nova, Bossa nova
