MARIA FROM BAHIA Albert Gamse / Misraki as rec by The Tophatters w Geraldo & his Orch 1940's The world has honoured famous charmers in poetry and song, But Cleopatra and Doreen and Dolores to history now belong, 'Cause we're here to extol the virtues of a new girl far from here; Maria is the name of the maiden, and the place is called Bahia. I-yi-yi Maria, Maria from Bahia, Everybody raves about the beauty of Maria! Guys with a girl in every port Do declare she is the sort They would really want to court. I-yi-yi Maria, Maria from Bahia, Makes you go Brazilian, oh a million love Maria! You may be one of them, my friend; Then your charms will seem to blend With the orchids you will send. But she'll say no, And it's no go, Because the little lady has a Romeo! So, I-yi-yi Maria, Maria from Bahia, If you love her, better stop and drop the whole idea! Just yesterday, on bended knee, He said, "Won't you marry me?", And Maria said, "Si si!". I-yi-yi Maria, Maria from Bahia, Everybody raves about the beauty of Maria! Guys with a girl in every port Do declare she is the sort They would really want to court. I-yi-yi Maria, Maria from Bahia, If you love her, better stop and drop the whole idea! Just yesterday, on bended knee, He said, "Won't you marry me?", And Maria said, "Si si!". I-yi-yi Maria, Maria from Bahia, I-yi-yi Maria, Maria from Bahia. Hi Maria Maria Maria Maria Maria! He said, "Won't you marry me?", And Maria said, "Si si!". (Contributed by Peter Akers - March 2010)
