[Verse 1]
Back in Brazil
There lives a girl
Dreams of the future
And a far, far better world
Back in Brazil
She meets a man
He's tall and handsome
And he fits in with her plan

[Bridge]
Bright lights ahead
Music and fun
Nights are for dancing
And the days are for the sun
All kinds of weather
Will surely come and go
But they're together
And together they will steal the show

[Interlude]
Ichiban! Ichiban! Ichiban!
Ichiban! Ichiban! Ichiban!
Ichiba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ban!

[Verse 2]
Back in Brazil
She makes a date
He has to cancel
'Cause they got him working late
Back in Brazil
She feels afraid
Hope starts to crumble
And her dreams begin to fade

[Bridge]
Her lights are out
She's gone to bed
Nights are for sleeping
If a girl's to get ahead
Even the weather
Has started changing too
But they'll be together
And together, they will make it through
Ichiban! Ichiban! Ichiban!
Ichiban! Ichiban! Ichiban!
Ichiban!

[Outro]
So we raise a family
As the clouds roll by
Making pictures of us in the sky
The kids are happy
And they don't ask why
Ba-ba-ba-ba-ba, you and I

Sir James Paul McCartney, born June 18, 1942, is the single most successful music artist of all time. He found worldwide fame as the bass player and vocalist for The Beatles, and has continued to enjoy commercial success long after the band’s breakup.

His post-Beatles projects—the most lucrative of which was the band Wings, alongside then-wife Linda Eastman—have been met with mixed critical reception but he still retains a substantial public following, regularly conducting worldwide arena tours well into his later years.

His album sales with The Beatles, Wings and solo endeavours combined come to over 100 million, and his net worth was estimated to be approximately $1.2 billion circa 2018. He was knighted in 1997 and is known for his activism.
