Gone to Rio Lyrics by Dylan Wright

The Long Way Home - EP

2014

[Verse 1]
My baby packed her bags
Told me she was gonna leave
I said, "What? Why, where you going?"
She said, "I gotta go where I gotta be"

[Refrain]
She’s gone to Rio
Oh, my baby’s in Rio
Hey, she’s gone to Rio
Oh, she’s in Rio

[Verse 2]
We slept it off then off she went
She left a note on the kitchen bench
Red lipstick in the shape of her lips
On my cheek and on my hips

[Refrain]
She’s in Rio
Oh, my baby’s in Rio
Oh, she’s gone to Rio
My, my baby’s in Rio

[Chorus]
Flashing lights and the beating drum
All them people tryna dance around
She rises her short skirt
All them fellas tryna get what they don’t deserve

[Refrain]
My baby’s in Rio
Hey, she’s gone to Rio
My, my baby’s in Rio de Janeiro

[Verse 3]
My baby’s hot and sweaty
Stinking of cigarettes
Strolling down those city streets
Sharing her love with every man

[Refrain]
Well, she’s in Rio
My baby’s in Rio
Hey, she’s gone to Rio
My, my baby’s in Rio de janero

[Chorus]
Flashing lights and the beating drum
All them people tryna dance around
She rises her short skirt
All them fellas tryna get what they don’t deserve

[Refrain]
My baby’s in Rio
Hey, she’s gone to Rio
My, my baby’s in Rio
