Way down in the land of the rio grande
when people get married they always have a dance
the music is grand with a samba band
the people are carried away with such romance
Olay! olay! the wedding samba
will bring a pretty senorita to her feet
and when they play the wedding samba
she'll say "i do" and seal it with a samba beat
So that's how it goes in fiesta time
the beat of a samba is always in the air
and ev'ry one knows it's fiesta time
and joins in the samba around the happy pair
