Music and lyrics written and arranged by Chip White (click on song title for lyrics)
1. You can feel the breeze
deep green seas
waves that rush in
gentle to the skin
skies that are so blue
makes the world feel new
sun that glows
burns your toes
Brazil, you give me such a thrill
a delight
the stars you see at night
Bahia, your history
Bahia, what it means to me

2. You will always hum
music of the drum
culture from the past
memories will last
palm trees in the wind
love's in bloom my friend
moonlight beams
pleasant dreams
Brazil, you give me such a thrill
a delight
the stars you see at night
Bahia, your history
Bahia, I need to see

3. We are back again
me and my friend
the sands of Salvador
carnival and more
people samba by
with energy so high
special nights
colors bright
Brazil, you give me such a thrill
a delight
the stars you see at night
Bahia, your history
Bahia, we need to free
