Rhumba Girl

Well I’m the same old girl
That I used to be
I haven’t changed at all
Same old walk, same old talk
That'll run you up the wall
Same old face and same old smile and
The same old baby blues
And I’m still doing the rhumba, baby
I’m still the girl for you

I’m still doing the rhumba baby
I can’t seem to quit
If my mama catches us doing the rhumba
My mama would just pitch a fit
But I can’t help myself, it’s much bigger than me
If I were you, I would hang on to
A rhumba girl like me

Well, lots of girls on the floor tonight
With slicker steps than me
The boogaloo, the funky broadway
Such a pretty sight to see
My step might be old fashioned
But that’s just fine with me
Cause I got a couple of rhumba steps
That I think you’d like to see

I’m still doing the rhumba baby
I can’t seem to quit
If my mama catches us doing the rhumba
My Mama would just pitch a fit
But I can't help myself, it’s much bigger than me
If I were you, I would hang on to
A rhumba girl like me

Well I’m the same old girl
That I used to be
I haven’t changed at all
Same old walk, same old talk
That'll run you up the wall
Same old face and same old smile and
Same old baby blues
And I’m still doing the rhumba, baby
I’m still the girl for you, darlin’ now

I’m still doing the rhumba baby
I can’t seem to quit
If my mama catches us doing the rhumba
My mama would just pitch a fit
But I can’t help myself, it’s much bigger than me
If I were you, I would hang on to
A rhumba girl like me
