paroles de chanson The Rhumba Boogie - Hank Snow

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 'til 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
Well you step out together then you circle around
Count one to 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

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
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

While Madame Lozonga was teachin' la conga
In her little cabana in old Havana
The folks in old Mexico were doin' the tango
And we were steppin' to the rhythm of an old guitar
Then 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
