Full lyrics
Eu vou voltar que eu não aguento
O Rio de Janeiro não me sai do pensamento
Ainda me lembro que eu fui à Copacabana
E passei mais de uma semana sem poder me controlar
Com ar de doido que parecia estar vendo
Aquelas moças correndo
de maiô à beira-mar
As mulheres na areia
Se deitam de todo o jeito
Que o coração do sujeito
Chega a mudar a pancada
E muitas delas vestem
Um tal de biquini
Se o cabra não se previne
Dá uma confusão danada
Translation
I'm going back, I can't take it anymore
Rio de Janeiro never leaves my mind
I still remember when I went to Copacabana
And spent more than a week unable to control myself
With a crazy look, as if I were seeing
Those girls running
in swimsuits by the seashore
The women on the sand
Lie down in every possible way
That a fellow's heart
Even changes its beat
And many of them wear
Something called a bikini
If a guy isn't careful
It causes a terrible commotion
