Rhumboogie
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
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-a 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-woo-oogie.
It's harlem's new creation
With a cuban syncopation -
It's a killer.
Rhumboogie.
Rhu-umboogie-woo-oogie.
The native rhythm haunts you,
It's barbaric and it taunts you -
It's a killer.
Just plant you toes and both feet on the side,
Let both your hips and shoulders glide,
Then throw your body 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!
