They call me Cuban Pete
I'm the king of the Rumba beat
When I play the maracas I go
Chic-chic-ky-boom
Chic-chic-ky-boom
Yes sir, I'm Cuban Pete
I'm the craze of my native street
When I start to dance everything goes
Chic-chic-ky-boom
Chic-chic-ky-boom
The senioritas they sing
And they swing with "terampero"
It's very nice. Ha-ha! So full of spice!
And when they dance in they bring
A happy ring that "era keros"
Singing a song
All the day long
So if you like the beat
Take a lesson from Cuban Pete
And I'll teach you to
Chic-chic-ky-boom
Chic-chic-ky-boom
Chic-chic-ky-boom
He's a really modest guy
Although he's the hottest guy
In Havana, in Havana
Si, seniorita I know
That you would like a Chic-ky-boom-chick
It's very nice - so full of spice
I'll place my hand on your hip
And if you will just give me your hand
Then we shall try
Just you and I
So if you like the beat
Take a lesson from Cuban Pete
Then I'll teach you to
Chic-chic-ky-boom
Chic-chic-ky-boom
Chic-chic-ky-boom
So if you like the beat
Take a lesson from Cuban Pete
Then I'll teach you to
Chic-chic-ky-boom
Chic-chic-ky-boom
Chic-chic-ky-boom!
