Tennessee Mambo |
| They’re really shaking down in Tennessee |
| They love the rhythm in a Latin key |
| You hear it and you drop for romance |
| And everyone yells that stance |
| When they play the Tennessee Mambo |
| Tennessee Mambo |
| We shake ‘til we’re numbo |
| We shake ‘til we groan |
| Knees knocking, hips rocking |
| Crazy swaying to and fro |
| Act like a native around a tom-tom |
| I’m a doing the Tennessee Mambo |
| Every night it’s like a Saturday |
| When you hear fiddles and maracas play |
| You know you’re going to live it up and so |
| You grab a gal and then let her go |
| When they play the Tennessee Mambo |
| Tennessee Mambo |
| We shake ‘til we’re numbo |
| We shake ‘til we groan |
| Knees knocking, hips rocking |
| Crazy swaying to and fro |
| Act like a native around a tom-tom |
| I’m a doing the Tennessee Mambo |
| We’re really shaking down in Tennessee |
| They love the rhythm to a Latin beat |
| The old square dance fiddles used to play |
| Are now square all day |
| When they play the Tennessee Mambo |
| Tennessee Mambo |
| We shake ‘til we’re numbo |
| We shake ‘til we groan |
| Knees knocking, hips rocking |
| Crazy swaying to and fro |
| Act like a native around a tom-tom |
| I’m a doing the Tennessee Mambo |
| The Quadrille doesn’t have a chance no more |
| Since the tune arrived from Ecuador |
| The old square dance fiddles used to play |
| Are mighty square all day |
| When they play the Tennessee Mambo |
| Tennessee Mambo |
| We shake ‘til we’re numbo |
| We shake ‘til we groan |
| Knees knocking, hips rocking |
| Crazy swaying to and fro |
| Act like a native around the tom tom I’m doing the Tennessee Mambo |
