Do Jeito Que o Rei Mandou
João Nogueira
The Way the King Ordered
Smile!
My parade's rolling through the city
It's gonna be a real Carnival
The samba's not over yet
Smile!
'Cause samba drives away our sadness
I want to see my people happy
The way the king ordered
Bang the cans, bang the drums
Agogô and tamborim
It hits deep in my chest
A love that never ends
And to keep from falling down
Nail it down, my lord
Stamp your feet, just bang it all
The way the king ordered.
