Story Behind The Song

I was born in Brazil. I had a few harrowing encounters with rats while living in Rio. In Atlanta too. My daughter is learning Portuguese so why not a bossa? It all makes sense...doesn't it?

Song Description

This song is about the rat playing the Bossa Nova with a band. The rhythm (drums) without a band is not as good-it doesn't work for Louie.

Lyrics

Toca toca rato,
a nossa Bossa Nova.
Canta canta junto,
comigo.

Toca toca rato,
a sua bateria.
Bate bate con,
alegria.

Eu sei o ritmo sozinho não merece,
seu carinho.
Tambem a musica sem vocês
não da,
não da pra min
