Samba Tongue Twister
‘Step-pa, step-pa sam-ba
Partnered with mam-ba
Scal-ey, snak-ey mam-ba
Slink-y, sul-try sam-ba!’
Sing a Samba
When the sound of the samba meets you,
There’ll be music to sing everywhere
When the sound of the samba greets you,
Sing along you’ll be floating on air.
Now when you’re ready,
Just take it steady,
When you sing the samba,
If your timings right, you’ll be out of sight!
When the sound of the samba meets you,
There’ll be music to sing everywhere
When the sound of the samba greets you,
Sing along you’ll be floating on air.
When your feet are moving
Feel your toes aglow,
Keep your arms a-pumping
And you’re almost ready to go!
Almost ready, ready to go
Almost ready, you’re almost ready, you’re almost ready to go!
Almost ready, you’re almost ready, you’re almost ready to go, to go!
When the sound of the samba meets you,
There’ll be music to sing everywhere
When the sound of the samba greets you,
Sing along you’ll be floating on air.
Now when you’re ready,
Just take it steady,
When you sing the samba,
If your timings right, you’ll be out of sight!
When the sound of the samba meets you,
There’ll be music to sing everywhere
When the sound of the samba greets you,
Sing along you’ll be floating on air.
