Circle Left
Oh, when my baby, when my baby smiles at me, I go to
De Janeiro… Left Allemande now
DoSaDo, the Men Star Left
inside the ring go
One time around now…
Why don’t you Turn your Partner by the Right, to the
corner, Allemande
And then you Swing there, Promenade
the square
I give into the rhythm
My feet follow the beating of my heart

Heads Promenade you
travel Halfway,
around the ring
Walk in, you Square Thru
go 4 hands now, inside the ring go
All the way round, and then you DoSaDo that lady
Make a Wave and the Ladies Trade, Recycle now
Veer Left and the Couples Circulate
Half Tag, Swing now, Promenade the town
I give in to the rhythm
And my feet follow the beating of my heart
CLOSER
Circle Left
When my baby, when my baby smiles at me, I feel like
Tarzan
Of the jungle… Left Allemande now
DoSaDo, the Men Star Left

Why don’t you Turn your Partner by the Right, to the corner, Allemande
And then you Swing there, Promenade

ORIGINAL LYRICS
When my baby
When my baby smiles at me I go to Rio
De Janeiro, my-oh-me-oh
I go wild and then I have to do the Samba
And La Bamba
Now I'm not the kind of person
With a passionate persuasion for dancin'
Or roma-ancin'
But I give in to the rhythm
And my feet follow the beatin' of my hear-eart
Woh-ho-oh-oh, when my
baby
When my baby smiles at me I go to Rio
De Janeiro
I'm a Salsa fellow
When my baby smiles at me
The sun'll lightens up my li-ife
And I am free at last, what a blast
Woh-ho-oh-oh, when my
baby
When my baby smiles at me
I feel like Tarzan, of the Jungle
There on the hot sand
And in a bungalow while monkeys play above-a
We-ee make love-a
Now I'm not the type to let vibrations (Rio)
Trigger my imagination easily (Rio)
You know that's just not me
But I turn into a tiger (Rio)
Everytime I get beside the - one I love (Rio)
Woh, oh, woh, woh-oh, Rio - Rio
Yeah Ugh - Rio – Ugh
Woh-ho-oh-oh, when my ba-a-aby (when my baby)
When my baby smiles at me I go to Rio (Rio)
De Janeiro
I'm a Salsa fellow-ow
When my baby smiles at me
The sun'll lightens you-up my li-ife
And I am free at last, what a blast
When my baby (when my baby)
When my baby smiles at me I go to Rio (Rio)
That's when I go to Rio (Rio)
Rio - Rio De Janeir-eiro
Rio, Rio, Rio
