The Rhumba Boogie
Well come all you children give a listen to me let me tell you bout a new boogie beatThere's no hesitation it's sweepin' the nationIt's the Rhumba Boogie down the South American wayWhile Madame Lozonga was teachin' La Conga in her little cabana in old HavanaWe were doing the charleston and Ballin' the JackThen that old black bottom till they started the Jitterbug ragThen across the water came Cuban Pete he started the boogie to the Rhumba BeatIt's the Rhumba Boogie let's give it a whirlWhile he plays the Boogie in the South American styleWell you step out together then you circle aroundCount one two three then put your right foot downThen you circle your lady as you swing and you swayTo the Rhumba Boogie in the South American wayNow the guy responsible for leadin' the bandYells do you stuff it's the best in the landIt's the Rhumba Boogie let's dance it a whileTo the boogie woogie done the Rhumba Cuban all styleWhen that old piano it starts to ring everybody then starts to singTo the Rhumba Boogie done the tropical styleIt's the Rhumba Boogie and they're doin' it all of the whileWhile Madame Lozonga was teachin' La Conga in her little cabana in old HabanaThe folks in old Mexico where doin' the tangoAnd we were steppin' to the rhythm of an old guitarTill across the water came Cuban Pete he started to boogie to the Rhumba beatIt's the Rhumba Boogie let's dance it a whileTo the boogie woogie done the Rhumba Cuban all style From Letras Mania
