Yaya

[Verse 1: 1-O.A.K.]
Go back in time to ancient Ouro Preto
Black Gold mines and incredible art
Soft hazel eyes aglow, piercing through my soul
Bahian beautiful girl steals my heart
Homes upon hills, high up above us
Deserted mine shafts, hidden beneath
Her architectural frame, soaring through my brain
Bahian beautiful girl to beseech
The atmosphere was charged with the sound
Of bongos, tambourines and bare feet on the ground
In the cool of the night, spellbound by the sight
Bahian beautiful girl, I have found

[Bridge: 1-O.A.K.]
My little Portuguese lover
Soul to soul, we touched each other
Swear I wanna meet her mother
Would you take me home?
Look baby, I want to be your drummer
So you can put me in your pocket
Baby girl you’re on fire (fire)
The way you’re moving around has got me locked in

[Chorus: 1-O.A.K.]
Yaya Yaya, take me higher
Yaya Yaya, keep on
Yaya Yaya, doing it babe
Yaya Yaya Yaya Yaya, take me higher
Yaya Yaya, keep on
Yaya Yaya, doing what you do
Yaya Yaya

[Verse 2: 1-O.A.K.]
Carnaval fills the land, just one rhythm in the dance
Ten thousand parties amidst, I’d miss them all for your kiss
Bahian beautiful girl to romance
She pierced so deep in my soul with such care
As I fixed my eyes to her stare
Majestic grace and control, Yaya embraced my soul
Bahian beautiful love affair

[Bridge: 1-O.A.K.]
My little Portuguese lover
Soul to soul, we touched each other
Swear I wanna meet her mother
Would you take me home?
Look baby, I want to be your drummer
So you can put me in your pocket
Baby girl you’re on fire (fire)
Don’t stop movin’
Please say lover
Soul to soul, we touched each other
Swear I wanna meet her mother
Would you take me home?
Ooh baby, I want to be your drummer
So you can put me in (put me in) your pocket
Baby girl you’re on fire (fire, fire)
The way you’re moving around has got me locked in

[Chorus: 1-O.A.K.]
Yaya Yaya, take me higher
Yaya Yaya, keep on
Yaya Yaya, doing it babe
Yaya Yaya Yaya Yaya, take me higher
Yaya Yaya, keep on
Yaya Yaya, doing what you do
Yaya Yaya
