Lyrics
[Verse 1]
As the sun rises
She opens up her hazel, beautiful eyes
And begins
Her baby cries
She picks him up and tells him
Beautiful lies again
[Verse 2]
She come from the Favela-la
Hills of Santa Teresa-sa
Underneath the Redeemer-mer
And the sun in the sky
She come from the Favela-la
Asks me E aí beleza-za
Underneath the Redeemer-mer
Where the hills come alive
[Verse 3]
She works the Favela night
She works the Favela night
Favela
She works the Favela night
[Verse 4]
And the wind blows
She lives on lonely streets where nobody goes
Alone
Just a young girl
Born on the left side of this right-handed world
She knows
[Verse 5]
She come from the Favela-la
Hills of Santa Teresa-sa
Underneath the Redeemer-mer
And the sun in the sky
She come from the Favela-la
Asks me E aí beleza-za
Underneath the Redeemer-mer
Where the hills come alive
[Verse 6]
She works the Favela night
Favela
She works the Favela night
Favela
[Verse 7]
Deep in the colours and the streets
Lost in the funk Favela beats
Prisioneira
Dancing in the Favela
Safe in the Ipanema bays
We raise a glass on holiday
It's a lopsided world
When you're a girl
Born into nothing at all
[Verse 8]
She come from the Favela-la
Hills of Santa Teresa-sa
Underneath the Redeemer-mer
And the sun in the sky
She come from the Favela-la
Asks me E aí beleza-za
Underneath the Redeemer-mer
Where the hills come alive
[Verse 9]
She works the Favela night
Favela
She works the Favela night
Favela
She works the Favela night
