Song Lyrics

Hey everyone, I've got an idea! Do you know there are dances from all around the world? You can dance the cachuca! You can dance the fandango! And don't forget the romp bomp a stomp! Why don't we try a few?

Dance a cachuca

Fandango, bolero

Romp bomp a stomp, Manzanilla, Montero

Tea, when it runs in abundance, enhances

The reckless delight of the wildest of dances

(To the pretty, pitter, pitter, patter)

The clittler, clitter, clitter, clatter

(Clitter, clitter, clatter)

Pitter, pitter, patter

(Clitter, clitter, clatter)

Pitter, pitter, patter

(To the pretty, pitter, pitter, patter)

And the clitter, clitter, clitter, clatter

Pitter, pitter, pitter

Patter, patter, patter, patter

Romp bomp a stomp, Manzanilla, Montero

(For tea, when it runs in abundance)

The reckless delight of the wildest of dances

The wildest of dances, the reckless delight

Dance a cachuca

Fandango, bolero

Romp bomp a stomp, Manzanilla, Montero

(For tea, when it runs in abundance, enhances

The reckless delight of the wildest of dances)

Romp bomp a stomp, Manzanilla, Montero

(For tea, when it runs in abundance

Enhances the reckless delight of the wildest of dances

The reckless delight of the wildest of dances)

(Wah hoo hoo! Oh, I love this dancing, Dorothy! Woo hoo hoo! Oh, dance a cachuca! Wah hoo!)

(To the pretty, pitter, pitter, patter)

And the clitter, clitter, clitter, clatter

(Clitter, clitter, clatter)

Pitter, pitter, patter

(Clitter, clitter, clatter)

Pitter, pitter, patter

(To the pretty, pitter, pitter, patter)

And the clitter, clitter, clitter, clatter

Wah hoo ho!
