Rio Antigo (Como Nos Velhos Tempos)

I want a chat on the corner
I want the old Rio
With children on the sidewalk
Playing without danger
Without subway and without big buses
Yesterday in tomorrow

I take the tram 12 to Ipanema
To see Oscarito and Grande Otelo at the cinema
Sunday at Rian
Let me want more, more peace

I want a bottle vendor's cry
Zizinho on the field
I want a syncopated samba
Baioba, baggage carrier
And the out-of-tune that Jobim got

I want the talent show
With Ary Barroso
Lamartine teaching me
A nice, nice, nice, nice, nice, delightful
I want Café Nice
Where the samba comes from

I want Cinelândia premiering
