This is just a little samba…

A little post dedicated to Sérgio Mendes.  Born in 1941, Mendes is a Brazilian musician that is a master of joining bossa nova with jazz and funk.

He’s had over 55 releases but I’m going to share with you a few songs from his famous Brazil ’66 album along with the lyrics.

Enjoy!

One Note Samba (Originally composed by Antonio Carlos Jobim)

Lyrics to One Note Samba

This is just a little samba, Built upon a single note

Other notes are bound to follow, But the root is still that note

Now this new one is the consequence, Of the one we’ve just been through

As I’m bound to be the unavoidable consequence of you

There’s so many people who can talk and talk and talk and just say nothing, Or nearly nothing

I have used up all the scale I know, And at the end I’ve come to nothing, Or nearly nothing

So I came back to my first note, As I must come back to you

I will pour into that one note, All the love I feel for you

Anyone who wants the whole show, Re mi fa sol la si do

He will find himself with no show, Better play the note you know

The Original Mas Que Nada (Move over Black Eyed Peas)

Lyrics to Mas Que Nada

Oaria rai?

Oba Oba Oba

Mas que nada

Sai da minha frente

Eu quero passar

Pois o samba esta animado

O que eu quero e sambar

Este samba

Que e misto de maracatu

e samba de preto velho

Samba de preto tu

Mas que nada

Um samba como esse t?o legal

Voce n?o vai querer

Que eu chegue no final

Day Tripper (Reworked The Beatles version)

Lyrics to Day Tripper

Gotta good reason
Were taking the easy way out
Gotta good reason
Were taking the easy way out

She was a daytripper, one way to go, yeah
Took me so long to find out, I found out

Tried to please her
She only played when I can
Tried to please her
She only played when I can

She was a daytripper, one way to go, yeah
Took me so long to find out, I found out

She was a teaser
She took me half the way there
She was a teaser
She took me half the way there

She was a daytripper, some days rather, yeah
Took me so long to find out, I found out

Daytripper, one day for you, yeah
It took me so long to find, I found out

Datripper, yeah
