THE RHUMBA BOOGIE Recorded by Hank Snow Written by Clarence E. Snow
[D] Welcome all you children, give a listen to me Let me tell you about a new [D7] boogie beat There's [G] no hesitation, it's sweepin' the [D] nation It's the [A] Rhumba Boogie done the South American [D] way.
While Madame Lazonga was teachin' La Conga In her little cabana in old Havana We were doin' the Charleston and Ballin' the Jack Then that old Black Bottom till they started that Jitterbug Rag.
Then across the water came Cuban Pete He started a 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, 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 Ever'body 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 yeIls "Do your stuff it's the best in best In the land" It's the Rhumba Boogie, let's dance it awhile To the Boogie Woogie done the Rhumba Cuban all-style.
