Lyrics

[Verse 1]

I said, take it easy, baby

I worked all day and my feet feel just like lead

You got my shirt tails flying all over the place

And the sweat popping out of my head

[Verse 2]

She said, hey, bossa nova baby, keep on working

For this ain't no time to quit

She said, go, bossa nova baby, keep on dancing

I'm about to have myself a fit

[Verse 3]

Bossa nova, bossa nova

[Verse 4]

I said, hey, little mama, let's sit down

Have a drink and dig the band

She said, drink, drink, drink, oh, fiddle-lee-dink

I can dance with a drink in my hand

[Verse 5]

She said, hey, bossa nova baby, keep on working

For this ain't no time to drink

She said, go, bossa nova baby, keep on dancing

'Cause I ain't got time to think

[Verse 6]

Bossa nova, bossa nova

[Verse 7]

I said, come on, baby

It's hot in here and it's oh-so cool outside

And if you lend me a dollar, I can buy some gas

And we can go for a little ride

[Verse 8]

She said, hey, bossa nova baby, keep on working

For I ain't got time for that

She said, go, bossa nova baby, keep on dancing

Or I'll find myself another cat

[Verse 9]

Bossa nova, bossa nova

[Verse 10]

Bossa nova, bossa nova

[Verse 11]

Bossa nova, bossa nova
