Raiz Da Nossa Raça - Nova Cor

(Alamir Rodrigues Filho, Clemar Pereira, Roberto Lopes Da Costa) 1990

O guereiro da senzala
Eu vi cantar criola
O guereiro da senzala
Eu vi cantar criola

Era festa na aldeia
Era festa na aldeia
Esquecendo a chibata
O negro só cantava
Em noite de lua cheia
O canto ecoava

Ohhh oh oh oh, oh oh
Oh oh oh oh
Ohhh oh oh oh, oh oh

Se pisar nesse chão
Pisa bem forte
Em respeito a herança da nossa raça
é herança do povo africano 
Bem distante da terra de Luanda

Ohhh oh oh oh, oh oh
Oh oh oh oh
Ohhh oh oh oh, oh oh

Esse canto era um canto tão forte
Divindade da luz interior
O universo era possuida fé
Que aboliu e partiu as correntes

Ohhh oh oh oh, oh oh
Oh oh oh oh
Ohhh oh oh oh, oh oh

O guereiro da senzala

All I Want - Armed Gang

(Maurizio Sangineto; Flavio Botta; Tony Valor) 1982

All I want is you and I forever
I believe that love is a good time
Yes, all I want is to live in a world of romance
The only way is to be good to you

And really, something's going wrong in my life
And I'm feeling sad and so down
I take my radio and I turn on the music
That's my style (And I'll be good to you)

All I want is to win my game
And no way it's just a thinking in my mind
All I want is to win my game
And your way has just fill my mind

All I want is you and I forever
I believe that love is a good time
Yes, all I want is to live in a world of romance
The only way is to be good to you

And really, something's going wrong in my life
And I'm feeling sad and so down
I take my radio and I turn on the music
That's my style (And I'll be good to you)

All I want is you and I forever
I believe that love is a good time
All I want is to live in a world of romance
The only way is to be good to you

Your love has taken me higher
The music's blowing my mind
Your love has taken me higher
The music's blowing my mind

All I want is you and I forever
I believe that love is a good time
All I want is to live in a world of romance
The only way is to be good to you

And really, something's going wrong in my life
And I'm feeling sad and so down
I take my radio and I turn on the music
That's my style (And I'll be good to you)

All I want is to win my game
And no way it's just a thinking in my mind
All I want is to win my game
And your way has just fill my mind

All I want is you and I forever
I believe that love is a good time
All I want is to live in a world of romance

Dance On The Beat - Boeing

(Luciano Cantone, Salvatore Zerbo) 1982

Everybody get up dance on the beat
Doctor stops way up and down the street
Everybody come on, jam with the beat
Let the rhythm move come to your feet

Party till you feel your spirit rise
Close your eyes if you are very shy
Let blow up yourself
And if you need some help
Doctor Dance will gladly lend the hand

Everybody get up, jam with the beat
Move slow slick delight on your feet
Dawn in the groove
Just let your body move
Doctor Dance is here and took the band

Everybody get up (Hoo)
Meet Doctor Dance!
Everybody get up (Hoo)
Meet Doctor Dance!

[I'm your man of the hour]
[Tower, music power]
[Stay tuned to this groove for daily up to date funk music]

May dance it on and on
Let's boogie all night long
Chase the bass on every disco song

Everybody get up (Hoo) 
Dance to the beat
Everybody get up (Hoo) 
Dance to the beat
Everybody get up (Hoo) 
Dance to the beat
Everybody get up (Hoo) 
Dance to the beat


(Everybody get up) (Hoo) Alright, now mama
(Dance to the beat)
(Everybody get up) (Hoo) 
(Dance to the beat) 
Alright y'all man (Everybody get up)
Up the hour (Dance to the beat)

(Dance to the beat)

Stay tuned to this groove

Faz De Conta - João Mello e Tamba Trio

(Orlandivo; Roberto Jorge) 1963

Faz de conta, faz
Faz de conta, faz
Que o seu coração 
Sem meu amor não vai sofrer
Faz de conta, faz
Faz de conta, faz

Faz de conta, faz
Faz de conta, faz
Que o seu amor 
Sem meu amor pode viver
Faz de conta, faz
Faz de conta, faz

Faz de conta 
Que voce pode viver sem mim
Faz de conta 
Que não liga e é melhor assim
Faz de conta, faz
Faz de conta, faz
Mas no fim das contas 
Vamos ver quem sofre mais
Faz de conta, faz
Faz de conta, faz

Faz de conta 
Que voce pode viver sem mim
Faz de conta 
Que não liga e é melhor assim
Faz de conta, faz
Faz de conta, faz
Mas no fim das contas 
Vamos ver quem sofre mais
Faz de conta, faz
Faz de conta, faz
Faz de conta, faz





You Can Lead Me - Firefly

(Maurizio Cavalieri) 1982

You can lead, lead me by the hand
Don't you know your love has got me high?
You can lead, lead me by the hand
Now's the time to share your love wisdom

We found each other, you understand, 
Down in Central Park
Oh I was felling good
You know it wasn't for your style
Neither for your way
There was only you

You've walked into my life
Like a stormy day breaks through summertime
You've changed up my mind
You′ve brought me trhough all times
Baby you took me high

You can lead, lead me by the hand
Don't you know your love has got me high?
You can lead, lead me by the hand
Now's the time to share your love wisdom


You make me feel so good
You make me feel so gooood!

You make me feel so good
You make me feel so gooood!


You make me feel so good
You make me feel so gooood!

You make me feel so good
You make me feel so gooood!

You make me feel so good
You make me feel so gooood!

You make me feel so good
You make me feel so gooood!

You make me feel so good
You make me feel so gooood!

You can lead, lead me by the hand
Don't you know your love has got me high?
You can lead, lead me by the hand
Now's the time to share your love wisdom

Are you busy or have some time
Right now on my mind
Just because of you
You know I really love your place
Your happy world
Baby, I do love you

I won't discuss your past
Life goes on too fast
And we just have no time

Oh God, somebody in this world
really can realize your love has got me high

You can lead, lead me by the hand
Don't you know your love has got me high?
You can lead, lead me by the hand
Now's the time to share your love wisdom 

You can lead, lead me by the hand
Don't you know your love has got me high?
You can lead, lead me by the hand
Now's the time to share your love wisdom 

You can lead, lead me by the hand
Don't you know your love has got me high?
You can lead, lead me by the hand
