Hank Snow - Rhumba Boogie lyrics

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
