Mama Inez

Oh, Mama Inez
Oh, Mama Inez
They hum and strum
That's the rumba for you
Oh, Mama Inez
Oh, Mama Inez
Though others come
Their "The Rumba" won't do

When I first saw the shebango
I fell so hard for the tango
But now this brand new fandango's got me
Like nothing's got me before

Oh, Mama Inez
Oh, Mama Inez
No Cuban rum's like the rumba for me

In Sloppy Joe's in Havana
I lingered when she met first
I saw her dancing there
That was really where I saw her first

Such graceful beauty and rhythm
Had never come to my sight
She made me want to stay, dance my heart away,
'Most every night
Da-dum da-da
Ah, dum da da

Ho ho, I like that tune
I'm crazy about that tune
Rumba, rumba
Ah, I want to dance the rumba, heh heh
I'm dancing right now, you know
Excuse me, I've got to dance it
Oh, I wish you could see me rumba, rumba
I'm shaking my hips overtime, you know?
Ho ho, it's fun
And all the boys around here I can see want to rumba too
The conductor is rumbaing now
Heh, and all the boys are rumba, rumba, rumba

Oh, Mama Inez
Oh, Mama Inez
No Cuban rum's like the rumba for me
Oh, Mama Inez
Oh, Mama Inez

Oh, Mama Inez
Oh, Mama Inez
They hum and strum
That's the rumba for, I like it

Oh, Mama Inez
Oh, Mama Inez
Oh, Mama Inez
Oh, Mama Inez
Though others come
Their "The Rumba" won't do

Come on, boys, let's all get hot now

When I first saw this shebango
I fell so hard for the tango
But now this brand new fandango's got me
Like nothing's got me before

Oh, Mama Inez
Oh, Mama Inez
Oh, Mama Inez
Oh, Mama Inez
No Cuban rum's like the rumba for me!
