|
All Harlem's got a brand new rhythm |
|
And it's burning up the dance floors |
|
Because it's so hot |
|
They took a little rhumba rhythm |
|
And they added boogie woogie |
|
And now look what they've got |
|
Rhumboogie, rhumboogie woogie |
|
It's Harlem's new creation |
|
With a Cuban syncopation |
|
It's a killer |
|
Rhumboogie, rhumboogie woogie |
|
The native rhythm haunts you |
|
It's barbaric and it taunts you |
|
It's a killer |
|
Just plant your both feet on each side |
|
Let both your hips and shoulders glide |
|
Then throw your body back and ride |
|
There's nothing like rhumboogie, rhumboogie woogie |
|
In Harlem or Havana |
|
You can kiss the old Savanna |
|
It's a killer |
|
{Oh, beat me daddy, eight to the bar} |
|
Rhumboogie, rhumboogie woogie |
|
It's Harlem's new creation |
|
With a Cuban syncopation |
|
It's a killer |
|
Rhumboogie, rhumboogie woogie |
|
The native rhythm haunts you |
|
It's barbaric and it taunts you |
|
It's a killer |
|
Just plant your toes and both feet on the side |
|
Let both your hips and shoulders glide |
|
Then throw your body way back and ride |
|
Think a little of, the rhumba |
|
The boogie, the woogie |
|
Then put them, both all together |
|
You have rhumboogie |
|
Then all together sing rhumboogie |
|
Rhumboogie woogie, rhumboogie |
|
In Harlem or Havana |
|
It'll kiss the old Savanna |
|
It's a killer, it's a killer this rhumboogie |
|
Rhumboogie, rhumboogie |
|
Rhumboogie woogie woogie woogie woogie |
|
Do do do do diddleyada do diddleyada do do dee |
|
There's nothing like rhumboogie |
