It's better to live singing
The things of the heart
That's why I live in the samba club
With these samba masters I am totally hooked
That's why I live in the samba club
In these samba masters I am totally hooked

(It's better to live) better to live singing
The things of the heart
That's why I live in the samba club
That these samba masters I am totally hooked
That's why I live in the samba club
These samba masters I am totally hooked

There are people from Madureira, Vila Isabel and Méier too
The folks from Mangueira, Leblon, Ipanema and Vila Vintém
A cool brunette from Copacabana told me, João
I spend every week with the samba club in my heart

(It's better to live) better to live singing
The things of the heart (that's why I live)
That's why I live in the samba club
That these samba masters I am totally hooked (you can believe I'm really hooked)
That's why I live in the samba club
That these samba masters I am totally hooked

Dona Ivone Lara told me that Clara is doing very well
And that Beth Carvalho's new work is unbeatable
Look at you, Alcione and Roberto Ribeiro stood in a line
They went to buy the ticket to watch Martinho da Vila's show

(It's better to live) better to live singing
The things of the heart
That's why I live in the samba club
That these samba masters I am totally hooked (that's it, heart full of happiness)
That's why I live in the samba club
These samba masters I am totally hooked

Look at Aunt Clementina, she looks like a girl always arguing
She lives singing pagode and dancing here and there
Chico Buarque de Holanda is having a blast and doesn't want to work
He lives playing football and strumming the guitar, just hanging out but he knows how to live

(It's better to live) better to live singing
The things of the heart
That's why I live in the samba club
In these samba masters I am totally hooked
That's why I live in the samba club
These samba masters I am totally hooked

It's better to live better to live singing
The things of the heart
That's why I live in the samba club
In these samba masters I am totally hooked
That's why I live in the samba club
That these samba masters I am totally hooked

(It's better to live) better to live singing
The things of the heart
That's why I live in the samba club
In these samba masters I am totally hooked
That's why I live in the samba club
That these samba masters I am totally hooked
