Doin' the Rhumba
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.
Gather round,
You get a thrill in your feet
That'll never be beat
When you're doin' the rhumba!
Hit the ground!
You'll find that everything shakes,
What a difference it makes
When you're doin' the rhumba!
Don't you stop,
Spin around again like a top!
What a dance,
Begin learning it now,
You'll be happy somehow,
When you're doin' the rhumba!
Take a chance,
Down in the valley they say,
Darkies wiggle and sway,
When you're doin' the rhumba!
You just
Wanna click those castanets!
What a dance,
Gets you right on the spot,
Swing out and get hot
When you're doing the rhumba!
