"I Go To Rio" by Pablo Cruise and Now The Olympics

What a coincidence I was humming "I Go To Rio" written by Peter Allen today, but the better version is  by Pablo Cruise.  Congrats to Rio for landing The 2016 Olympics and halting more corruption that would be heading to Chicago.  Obama and Oprah were there trying to secure the bid for The Windy City.  I guess they will say it's George W. Bush's fault for not getting the games.

The first time The Olympics will be held in South America.

Lyrics to "I Go To Rio"  The Pablo Cruise version is catchy.

I Go To Rio Lyrics

(written by: Peter Allen and Adrienne Anderson)

Oooooo...
When my baby,
When my baby smiles at me,
I go to Rio
De Janeiro.
My-o me-o...
I go wild and then
I have to do the samba,
And la bamba.

Now I'm not the kind of person,
With a passion or persuasion
For dancin' or romancin'.
But I give in to the rhythm,
And my feet follow the beating
Of my heart.

whoa oh ohh...
When my baby,
When my baby smiles at me,
I go to Rio
De Janeiro.
I'm a Salsa fella,
When my baby smiles at me,
The sun lightens up my life,
And I am free at last.
What a blast!

Whoa oh ohh...
When my baby,
When my baby smiles at me,
I feel like Tarzan
Of the Jungle.
There on the hot sand,
In a bungalow
While monkies play above-a,
We'll make love-a.

Now I'm not the kind
To let vibrations,
Trigger my imagination
Easily.
No, that's just not me.
But I turn into a tiger,
Everytime I get the sight of,
What I love, love, love.

Ohhh oh ohh ohhh...

---instruments---

Wooooooo!

Ohh oh oh...
When my baby,
When my baby smiles at me,
I go to Rio
De Janeiro.
I'm a Salsa fella,
When my baby smiles at me
The sun lightens up my life,
And I am free at last.
What a blast!

Wooooo hooooo...

---instruments/whistles---

whoa oh oh ohh...

whoa oh ohh...
When my baby,
When my baby smiles at me,
I go to Rio
De Janeiro.
I'm a Salsa fella,
When my baby smiles at me
The sun lightens up my life,
And I am free at last.
What a blast!

(Rio)

When my baby smiles at me,
I go to Rio.
Rio,
Rio De Janeiro.

Take me back,
I put it in.
Take me where I know
I'm gon' to Rio.
Oh ohh...
