The Wedding Samba - Carmen Miranda/The Andrews Sisters

Way down in the land of the Rio Grande

When people get married they always have a dance

The music is grand with a samba band

And people are carried away with such romance

Ole ole the wedding samba

Will bring a timid senorita to her feet

And when they play the wedding samba

She will say I do and seal it with a samba beat

So that's how it goes

In fiesta time the beat of a samba is always in the air

And everyone knows it's fiesta time

And join in the samba around the happy pair

Way down in the land of the Rio Grande

When people get married they always have a dance

The music is grand with a samba band

And people are carried away with such romance

Ole ole

Samba

And when they play the wedding samba

And everyone knows it's fiesta time

And join in the samba around the happy pair

Around the happy pair

Around the happy pair
