Tall and tan and young and lovely
The Girl From Ipanema goes walking
And when she passes, each one she passes goes - aaaaahh

When she walks, she's like a samba
That swings so cool and sways so gentle
That when she passes, each one she passes goes - aahh

(Ooh) But I watch her so sadly
How can I tell her I love her
Yes I would give my heart gladly
But each day, when she walks to the sea
She looks straight ahead, not at me

Tall, and tan, and young, and lovely
The Girl From Ipanema goes walking
And when she passes, I smile - but she doesn't see

(Instrumental Interlude)

(Ooh) But I watch her so sadly
How can I tell her I love her
Yes I would give my heart gladly
But each day, when she walks to the sea
She looks straight ahead, not at me

Tall, and tan, and young, and lovely
The Girl From Ipanema goes walking
And when she passes, I smile - but she doesn't see

She ain't looking at me
She ain't looking at me, she keeps on a-walking
and a-swinging down the beach to the sea

Good Lord!
She walks like a samba,
She looks like a samba
She swings like a samba...

(At the end of song,
Sammy Davis, Jr. Repeats a line from the Chorus
here with variations
But its not that way in original so up to you
if you keep it to be like the You Tube he sang in).
