Antônio Carlos Jobim
Ipanema Rap
Tall!
(Yeah, Tan) Tan!
(Young!) Young!
(Lovely!) Lovely!

Tie a tie, and crack the bumpin'
The girl is tall and tan and lovely (lovely!)
And when she passes all the other lasses go
(Hey! Huh!)
She's real good looking
Now you see her in the water, she's real continental
She moves so cool, she's swaying so gentle
Likes to samba, a real La Bamba
(Ah! Huh!)
She real good looking

Oh, I would give my heart a real start (I need something)
I want her so badly I would give it real gladly (Yeah)
How can I tell her if I can't even smell her?
I want her do discover that I really do love her
I'll do anything to reach her I'm ready to peach her (Ha)
Take her by the hand, build a castle with the sand
Each day she goes, you'll see what I mean
'Cause I gotta go downtown and MAKE MONEY

(Tall!) Real tall, straight like an arrow
(Tan!) Like the folks down in Rio de Janeiro
(Young) Real young, 'cause I like 'em that way on a
(Beach!) Beach, beach, going there to stay
(Tall!) She's tall, tall, Ipanema tall (She's tall, and I'm so small)
(Tan!) Tan, t- tan, Ipanema tan, man (She's tan, and I don't understand)
(Young!) Young, young, Ipanema young (Young, young)
(Beach!) Beach! Beach! Beach! Beach! Beach! (Rio de Janeiro, Rio de Janeiro)

Tall and tan and young and lovely (she's tall, she's tall she's tall)
The girl from Ipanema goes walking (she goes walking!)
And when she passes all the other lasses go
(Hey! Huh!)
She's real good looking
And when she moves, she likes to samba
Swings so cool and she sways so gentle
And when she passes all the other lasses go
(Hey! Huh!)
She's real good looking

Ohhhhhhh, but I watch her so sadly (Why you so sad?) (I dunno!)
How can I tell her I love her? (Why can't you talk to her and tell her you love her, man?)
Yes, I would give my heart gladly [?]
But each day she walks to the sea (What she doin' at the sea?)
She looks straight ahead at me

Tall and tan and young and lovely (She's so tall)
The girl from Ipanema goes walking (Why she walkin' so much?)
And when she passes I smile, but she doesn't see (I don't know why she don't see me, I'm standin' right here!)
She don't see me (What's wrong with her? She don't see me?)
She just don't see (I spend everyday on this beach, man!)
She don't see me (What's wrong with her?)
She don't see me
