I look at Christ over on Corcovado
And, in silence, I shout 'êpa Babá'
Everything's weird, everything so wrong
There's plenty of friction, drama, there's contraband
But there's sertanejo, trap, pagodão
Anavitória, sweet jaguar kiss
'Maravilha' Mendonça, in tune
Keep coming, we'll get there
See if it rolls, if everything will roll
But without samba it won't work
Without samba it won't work
Without samba it won't work
Without samba it won't work
Without samba it won't work
Without samba it won't work
Without samba it won't work
Without samba it won't work
There's sambanejo or pagobrejo
There's Ferrugem, Glória Groove
There's Djonga with Rogério
There's Baco Exu do Blues
There's Duda Beat, Gabriel do Borel
Gabriel do Borel, Gabriel do Borel

There's Leo Santana and Mendonça
