Karaoké The Girl from Ipanema (live) Lou Rawls

Uh, this particular song that I'm speaking of now

Uh, was very instrumental in introducing, uh the bossa nova

They had a great great hand in that thing and now

Mister Stan Getz

Who was, uh, one of the, uh people that brought it from down south of the border below the other border

He and a man named, uh

Gilberto I believe it was put it together

The original title of this song let me tell you was uh, is The Girl from Ipanema

But, uh, we have to revised it somewhat

We call it The Girl from Biloxi

That's uh down below the Cotton

Curtain in Mississippi

But they have some beautiful beaches down there 'cos we saw them as we flew over

You know we looked down all of a sudden pretty sands and things down there

Talkin' 'bout tall and tan and young and lovely

The girl from Ipanema goes a-walking and oh when

She passes each one she passes goes

Ah ah

Ah

I said oh when she walks she's like a samba that swings so cool and sways so gentle and oh when

She passes each one she passes goes

Yeah

Yeah yeah

I said ooh but I watch her so sadly

I wonder how can I tell her I love her

I said oh yes

I would give my heart gladly

But each and every day as she walks to the sea you know she looks straight ahead she won't look back at me, no

Tall and tan and young and lovely, the girl from Ipanema goes a-walking and oh when

She passes, I smile but the girl just won't she won't a-look a-back at me

We got

Tommy's solo on the piano

To see if I am looking back to see if she is looking back at me hey, oh yeah

Go ahead

Oh yeah

I said oh but I watch her so sadly

I wonder how, how can I tell her that I love her so

I said oh yes, yes

I would give my heart to that girl so gladly

But each and every day as she walks to the sea you know she looks straight ahead she won't look back at me, no

Tall and tan and young and lovely, the girl from Ipanema goes a-walking and oh when

She passes I smile but the girl just won't look back at me to see

If I am looking back to see if she is looking back to see if I am looking back to see if she is looking back

To see if I am looking back at her as she walks down to the sea

Oh, she looks so good to me and everybody else because she's wearing one of them real cute bikini bathin' suits and it sure does look good to me

I said it really, really, really looks so good to me

I, I was a-looking back to see if she was looking back to see if I was looking back to see if she was looking back at me

But she wouldn't look back at me

As she walked down to the sea she wouldn't look at me

Dee ah bap

Thank you
