o barquinho



Dia de luz, festa de sol
e um barquinho a deslizar
no macio azul do mar

Tudo é verão e o amor se faz
num barquinho pelo mar
que desliza sem parar...

Sem intenção, nossa canção
vai saindo desse mar e o sol
Beija o barco e luz
dias tão azuis!

Volta do mar, desmaia o sol
e o barquinho a deslizar
e a vontade de cantar!

Céu tão azul, ilhas do sul
e o barquinho, coração,
deslizando na canção

Tudo isso é paz, tudo isso traz
uma calma de verão e então

O barquinho vai, a tardinha cai...


My little boat is like a note bouncing merrily along,
splashing up a song.
The sails are white, the sky's bright heading' out into the blue
with a crew of only two.
Where we can share love's salty air

on a little paradise that's afloat,
not a care have we in my little boat

The wind is still, we feel the thrill of a voyage heaven bound,
we only drift around.
Warmed by the sun, two hearts as one
melting enchanted bliss, with each other's kiss
When daylight ends and slyly sends
little stars to winkle brightly above,
It's goodbye to you, little boat of love

caldonia


Walkin' with my baby she's got great big feet
She's long, lean, and lanky and ain't had nothing to eat
But she's my baby and I love her just the same
Crazy 'bout that woman cause Caldonia is her name

Caldonia, Caldonia
What makes your big head so hard?

I love you. I love you just the same
I always love you baby, cause Caldonia is her name

You know? Mama told me leave Caldonia alone
That's what she told me, no kidding
That's what she said,
Son... keep away from that woman - she's ain't no good!
But Mama did know what Caldonia was put down...
So, I'm going down Caldonia's house, and ask her one more time

Caldonia, Caldonia
What makes your big head so hard?

it don't mean a thing (if it ain't got that swing!)



Ella & Duke

It don't mean a thing,

if it ain't got that swing
(doo-ah, doo-ah, doo-ah, doo-ah,
doo-ah, doo-ah,
doo-ah, doo-ah)

It don't mean a thing
all you got to do is swing

(doo-ah, doo-ah, doo-ah, doo-ah,
doo-ah, doo-ah,
doo-ah, doo-ah,)

It makes no difference, if it's sweet or hot
Just give that rhythm, everything, everything you've got
It don't mean a thing, if it ain't got that swing
(doo-ah, doo-ah, doo-ah, doo-ah,
doo-ah, doo-ah,
doo-ah, doo-ah)

...

(doo-ah, doo-ah, doo-ah, doo-ah,
doo-ah, doo-ah,
doo-ah, doo-ah)

...

Rain, rain, go away,
come here some other day
(doo-ah, doo-ah, doo-ah, doo-ah,
doo-ah, doo-ah,
doo-ah, doo-ah)

...

It makes no difference, if it's sweet or hot
Just give that thing, every little thing you've got

...
