Say, have you seen that Ca-ri-o-ca?
 7    7* 7 -7*  -7  7* 7 -5  7
It's not a fox-trot or a pol-ka
7   7* 7 -7* -7   7* 6  -10 -9  -9*
It has a lit-tle bit of new rhy-thm, 
9  -9  -8   8   7*    7
a blue rhy-thm that sighs
7   7* 7 -7* -7  7*  7    8   7
It has a me-ter that is trick-y
7  7* 7  -7*  -7  7*  7  -9  7
A bit of wick-ed wack-i-wick-y
 7   7*   7   -7*  -7  7*  7 -10  -9
But when you dance it with a new love, 
  -9*    9   -9   -8  8  -7   8
There’ll be true love in her eyes

Key: C
  6      7   6  -6   7  -7 7 -6 -5
You’ll dream of the new Ca-ri-o-ca
 -5   -6   -5 6  -6   7 -6  6
It’s theme is a kiss and a sigh
  6      7   6  -6   7  -7 7 -6 -5
You’ll dream of the new Ca-ri-o-ca
 6   -6  -7  6    7    -5   -6  
When mus-ic and lights are gone 
 5   6    -4  -5   -3   4 
And we’re say-ing good-bye

Two heads together, 
they say are better than one
Two heads together, 
that's how the dance is begun
Two arms around you and lips, 
that's why I'm yours and you are mine
And you are mine

Now that you've done the Carioca
You'll never care to do the Polka
And then you'll realize the blue hula 
and bamboola are through

Tomorrow morning you'll discover
You're just a Carioca lover
And when you dance it with each new love, 
there'll be true love just for you

Now you'll dream of a new Carioca
Its theme is a kiss and a sigh
You'll dream of a new Carioca
When music and lights are gone 
and we're saying goodbye
Goodbye
