Rio piano leadsheet with chords
Moving on the floor now, babe,
you're a bird of paradise.
Cherry ice cream smile, I suppose it's very nice.
With a step to your left and a flick to the right,
you catch that mirror way out west.
You know you're something special and you look like you're the best.
Her name is Rio and she dances on the sand,
just like that river twisting through a dusty land.
And when she shines, she really shows you all she can.
Oh, Rio, Rio, dance across the Rio
Grande.
I've seen you on the beach and I've seen you on TV,
two of a billion stars.
It means so much to me,
like a birthday or a pretty view.
But then, I'm sure that you know it's just for you.
Grande.
Hey now, woo, look at that.
Did he nearly run you down?
At the end of the drive the lawmen arrive.
You make me feel a live,
a live, a live.
I'll take my chance,
'cause luck is on my side or 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,
just like that river twists a cross the dusty land.
And when she shines, she really shows you all she can.
Oh, Rio, Rio, dance a cross the Rio Grande.
Her name is Rio;
she don't need to understand.
And I might find her if I'm look ing like I can.
Oh, Rio, Rio, hear them shout a cross the land,
the mountains in the north down to the Rio
Grande. Grande.
