On the Avenue

Say, have you seen the Carioca?
It's not a foxtrot or a polka
It has a little bit of new rhythm, a blue rhythm that sighs
.It has a meter that is tricky
A bit of wicky wacky-wicky
But when you dance it with a new love
There'll be true love in her eyes

You'll dream of the new Carioca
Its theme is a kiss and a sigh
You'll dream of the new Carioca
When music and lights are gone and we're sayin' goodbye

Two heads together, they say are better than one
Two heads together, that's how the dance is begun
Two arms around you, and lips that found yours
And you are mine, while the Carioca carries you away
Mine, while the Carioca, .till the break of day
And you are mine

The Carioca dance
You'll never get the chance
Blue hula and bam, bamboola, are through

Tomorrow, you'll discover
A Carioca lover
New lover, the true, true, love, just for you

You'll dream of the new Carioca
Its theme is a kiss and a sigh
You'll dream of the new Carioca
When music and lights are gone and we're sayin', "goodbye"

When music and lights are gone and we're sayin', "goodbye"
