Lyrics

Aurora comes from Rio De Janeiro
She dances in a little street cafe
And when you’re down in Rio De Janeiro
Here’s what you’ll hear each Latin lover say

Chorus
You’re a sweetheart in a million
Oh Oh Oh Oh Aurora
With your manner so Brazilian
Oh Oh Oh Oh Aurora
When you smile and call me honey
Oh Oh Oh Oh Aurora
Is it me or just my money
Oh Oh Oh Oh Aurora
I’ll buy you this and buy you that
If you’ll be true to me
I’ll even rent a cottage
And present you with the key
So, if you marry me and be my sweet Senora
Oh Oh Oh Oh Aurora
