Lyrics[]

[Jamie Foxx]
Party in Ipanema, baby!
I wanna party,
I wanna samba,
I wanna party,
I wanna samba,
I wanna party,
And live my life, (my life)
I wanna party, (party)
And fly...
Hey! I'ma fly, fly just like a bird (but you are a bird!)
Oh yeah, you're right, so let me fly just like a rocket, then (okay!)
Fly so high where I need to come down for oxygen (hey!)
'Cause once we start it, baby, ain't no, ain't no stoppin' then (hey!)...
'Cause I just want to live my life and party (hey!)
All I want is to be free and rock my body (okay)
Ain't nowhere 'round the world that I wanna live my life
In Rio, 'cause in Rio, 'cause I Rio-realize that
