The Carioca Lyrics - The Astaire Story - Fred Astaire

Say, have you seen a Carioca? 

It's not a foxtrot or a polka 

It has a little bit of new rhythm, a blue rhythm that sighs 

It has a meter that is tricky 

A bit of wicked wacky-wicky 

But when you dance it with a new love, there's a true love in her eye 

You dream of a new Carioca 

Its theme is a kiss and a sigh 

You dream of a new Carioca 

When music and lights are gone we say goodbye

Two heads together, they say are better than one 

Two heads together, that's how the dance is begun 

Two arms around you and lips, that's why I'm yours and you are mine 

And you are mine 

Now that you've done the Carioca 

You'll never care to do the Polka 

And then you'll realize the blue hula and bamboola are through 

Tomorrow morning you'll discover 

You're just a Carioca lover 

And when you dance it with each new love, 

there'll be true love just for you
