Moving on the floor you're like a bird of paradise
Cherry ice cream smile I suppose it's very nice
With a step to your left and a flick to the right
You catch that mirror way out west
But now you're something special and you look like you're the best.

Her name is Rio and she dances on the sand
Just like that river twisting through the dusty land
And when she shines she really shows you all she can
Oh Rio Rio dance across the Rio Grande.

I've seen you on the beach and I've seen you on T.V.
Two of a billion stars, it meant so much to me
Like a birthday or a pretty view
But now I'm sure that f*cking song is just for you.

Her name is Rio and she dances on the sand
Just like that river twisting through the dusty land
And when she shines she really shows you all she can
Oh Rio Rio dance across the Rio Grande.

Her name is Rio!
And she dances on the sand
Like a river
Twisting across the lonely land.
