Lyrics

[Verse 1]

There's a girl from Brazil

She was born to move her hips, can't keep her feet still

Always looking for attention

She uses her eyes to turn a small flame into a fire

[Verse 2]

Ah, she's a girl from a town

Where nobody knows your name, where nobody's found

And no one ever sees the bright lights now as she spends every night

She danced her way to a better life

[Verse 3]

I gotta leave 'cause it's a bad thing

She 'bout to make me do the things that she wanna do

It feels so good when it's a bad thing

But when the lights go down, come on, Elita, wave your crown

[Verse 4]

And the crowd shouts, "Elita

Oh come out where we can see ya"

Now the night is ready for ya

One dance and we'll be singing hallelujah

Now the crowd, they are screaming

Letting out what they are feeling

It's so hot, don't get too near

Number one señorita, oh Elita

[Verse 5]

It's kinda hard to find somebody from this part of the world

After you're looking at her body and you're starting to tell

That you're falling in love and it feels like a drug

You got nothing to lose, you've got something to touch

[Verse 6]

She can be cold, cold, digging for gold

She doesn't wanna keep a man, doesn't wanna be sold

She has a ticket to a life that is hard to resist

She rewrote the book and added a twist

[Verse 7]

I gotta leave 'cause it's a bad thing

She 'bout to make me do the things that she wanna do

It feels so good when it's a bad thing

But when the lights go down come on, Elita, wave your crown

[Verse 8]

And the crowd shouts, "Elita

Oh come out where we can see ya"

Now the night is ready for ya

One dance and we'll be singing hallelujah

Now the crowd, they are screaming

Letting out what they are feeling

It's so hot, don't get too near

Number one señorita, oh Elita

[Verse 9]

Dance, dance, dance, Elita

Dance, dance, dance, Elita

Dance, dance, dance, Elita

Looking at Elita, da, da, da

[Verse 10]

Bailame Elita, baila

Elita baila

[Verse 11]

So look out, beware

Like a do or dare

She'll fight for a right

She'll do whatever it takes

[Verse 12]

And the crowd shouts, "Elita (Elita)

Oh come up where we can see ya"

Now the night is ready for ya

One dance and we'll be singing hallelujah

Now the crowd, they are screaming

Letting out what they are feeling

It's so hot, don't get too near

Number one señorita, oh Elita

[Verse 13]

Dance, dance, dance, Elita

Dance, dance, dance, Elita

Dance, dance, dance, Elita

Come on, Elita

Come on, Elita

Come on, Elita
