Samba Envolvente
Grupo Revelação Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Até a lua veio clarear
Este samba envolvente pra gente sambar
Ao meu amor, eu mandei avisar
Que eu só saio daqui quando o dia raiar
Samba Iáiá de Iôiô, Iôiô Iáiá
Samba que o samba esquentou
Eu vou sambar
Eu vou sambar miudinho
Ao som de um cavaquinho
Um repique, pandeiro, um banjo maneiro
Viola e tantã
Junto com a rapaziada
Muita cerveja gelada
Eu só saio daqui amanhã de manhã
Samba Iáiá de Iôiô
Iôiô Iáiá
Samba que o samba esquentou
Eu vou sambar
O samba me contagia
Na dor me traz alegria
A poesia parece magia
Envolve o coração
E quando vira partido
Cheio de verso atrevido
Fico comovido ao ver a galera
Na palma da mão
Samba Iáiá de Iôiô
Iôiô Iáiá




Samba que o samba esquentou
Eu vou sambar
