The Rhumba Boogie |
Well come all you children give a listen to me |
Let me tell you 'bout a new boogie beat |
There’s no hesitation and it’s sweepin' the nation |
It’s the Rhumba Boogie down the South American way |
While Madame Lozonga was teachin' La Conga |
In her little cabana in old Havana |
We were doing the Charleston and Ballin' the Jack |
Then that Old Black Bottom till they started the Jitterbug Rag |
Then across the water came Cuban Pete |
He started the boogie to the rhumba Beat |
It’s the Rhumba Boogie let’s give it a whirl |
While he plays the Boogie in the South American style |
Break (guitar) |
Well you step out together then you circle around |
Count one two three then put your right foot down |
Then you circle your lady as you swing and you sway |
To the Rhumba Boogie in the South American way |
When that old piano it starts to ring |
Everybody then starts to sing |
To the Rhumba Boogie done the tropical style |
It’s the Rhumba Boogie and they’re doin' it all of the while |
Well the guy responsible for leadin' the band |
He yells do your stuff it’s the best in the land |
It’s the Rhumba Boogie let’s dance it a while |
To the boogie woogie done the Rhumba Cuban all style |
Break (guitar) |
While Madame Lozonga was teachin' La Conga |
In her little cabana in old Havana |
The folks in old Mexico where doin' the tango |
And we were steppin' to the rhythm of an old guitar |
'Til across the water came Cuban Pete |
He started to boogie to the rhumba beat |
It’s the Rhumba Boogie let’s dance it a while |
To the Rhumba Boogie done the Rhumba Cuban all style |
