Moving on the floor now, babe
Moving on the floor now, babe
You're a bird of paradise
You're a bird of paradise
Cherry ice cream smile
Cherry ice cream smile
I suppose it's very nice
I suppose it's very nice
With a step to your left and a flick to the right
With a step to your left and a flick to the right
You catch that mirror way out west
You catch that mirror way out west
You know you're something special
You know you're something special
And you look like you're the best
And you look like you're the best
Her name is Rio and she dances on the sand
Her name is Rio and she dances on the sand
Just like that river twisting through a dusty land
Just like that river twisting through a dusty land
And when she shines, she really shows you all she can
And when she shines, she really shows you all she can
Rio, Rio dance across the Rio Grande
Rio, Rio dance across the Rio Grande
I've seen you on the beach
I've seen you on the beach
And I've seen you on tv
And I've seen you on tv
Two, of a billion stars
Two, of a billion stars
It means so much to me
It means so much to me
Like a birthday or a pretty view
Like a birthday or a pretty view
But then I'm sure that you know it's just for you
But then I'm sure that you know it's just for you
Her name is Rio and she dances on the sand
Her name is Rio and she dances on the sand
Just like that river twisting through a dusty land
Just like that river twisting through a dusty land
And when she shines, she really shows you all she can
And when she shines, she really shows you all she can
Rio, Rio dance across the Rio Grande
Rio, Rio dance across the Rio Grande
Hey now
hey now
Look at that did he nearly run you down
Look at that did he nearly run you down
At the end of the drive the lawmen arrive
At the end of the drive the lawmen arrive
You make me feel alive, alive, alive
You make me feel alive, alive, alive
I'll take my chance 'cause luck is on my side
I'll take my chance 'cause luck is on my side
Or something, I know what you're thinking
Or something, I know what you're thinking
I'll tell you something, I know what you're thinking
I'll tell you something, I know what you're thinking
Her name is Rio and she dances on the sand
Her name is Rio and she dances on the sand
Just like that river twists across a dusty land
Just like that river twists across a dusty land
And when she shines, she really shows you all she can
And when she shines, she really shows you all she can
Rio, Rio dance across the Rio Grande
Rio, Rio dance across the Rio Grande
Her name is Rio, she don't need to understand
Her name is Rio, she do n't need to understand
And I might find her if I'm looking like I can
And I might find her if I'm looking like I can
Rio, Rio hear them shout across the land
Rio, Rio hear them shout across the land
From mountains in the north, down to the Rio Grande
From mountains in the north, down to the Rio Grande
Doo doo doo doo doo doo
Doo doo doo doo doo doo
Doo doo doo doo doo doo
Doo doo doo doo doo doo
Doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo
Doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo
