[English]

Hot girls, where I’m from We don’t look like models

Tan lines, big curves

And the energy glows

You’ll be falling in love With the girl from Rio

Yeah yeah

Let me tell you ‘bout a different Rio

The one I’m from, but not the one that you know

The one you meet when you don’t have no money

Baby, it’s my love affair It’s my love affair, yeah

Just found out I have another brother

Same daddy but a different mother

This was something that I always wanted

Baby, it’s a love affair It’s a love affair, yeah

Oh woah

I got it, I got it, I got it, I got it It runs in my blood, oh

I love it, I love it, I love it, I love it You already know

A dime a dozen I’m lucky, I’m lucky, I’m lucky, I know

It’s my love affair

Hot girls, where I’m from

We don’t look like models

Tan lines, big curves

And the energy glows

You’ll be falling in love With the girl from Rio

Go naughty girl, gringo sings, everybody sings

Hot girls, where I’m from

We don’t look like models

Tan lines, big curves

And the energy glows

You’ll be falling in love With the girl from Rio

Go naughty girl, gringo sings, everybody sings

Honório Gurgel forever (that’s me)

Babies having babies like it doesn’t matter

Yeah, the streets have raised me I’m Favela (so much)

Baby, it’s my love affair It’s my love affair, yeah

I just had to leave another lover (another?)

Cus he couldn’t handle my persona (you don’t say)

Cus I’m cold like winter, hot like summer

Baby, it’s my love affair It’s my love affair

Oh woah

I got it, I got it, I got it, I got it It runs in my blood, oh

I love it, I love it, I love it, I love it You already know

A dime a dozen I’m lucky, I’m lucky, I’m lucky, I know

It’s my love affair

Hot girls, where I’m from

We don’t look like models

Tan lines, big curves

And the energy glows

You’ll be falling in love With the girl from Rio

Go naughty girl, gringo sings, everybody sings

Hot girls, where I’m from

We don’t look like models

Tan lines, big curves

And the energy glows

You’ll be falling in love With the girl from Rio

Go naughty girl, gringo sings, everybody sings

Hot girls, where I’m from

We don’t look like models

Tan lines, big curves

And the energy glows

You’ll be falling in love With the girl from Rio

Go naughty girl, gringo sings, everybody sings

Hot girls, where I’m from

We don’t look like models

Tan lines, big curves

And the energy glows

You’ll be falling in love With the girl from Rio
