[Verse]

Under the moon the river hums low

Tides whisper secrets only the night knows

Beneath the stars where the warm winds go

[Prechorus]

You can try to fight it

But it pulls you in

The rhythm bites it

And the story begins

[Chorus]

Rio de la Plata just forget about it

Forget about it

Dance till you’re free

No matter what you do the samba's got you

The samba's got you

It’s destiny

[Verse 2]

The water's silver a shimmering vein

Carving a path through pleasure and pain

Every wave a story every step a refrain

[Prechorus]

The current calls you

It knows your name

The beat enthralls you

It’s all the same

[Chorus]

Rio de la Plata just forget about it

Forget about it

Dance till you’re free

No matter what you do the samba's got you

The samba's got you

It’s destiny
