Cuban Pete Songtext
von Desi Arnaz & his Orchestra

They raved about Sloppy Joe, the Latin la barrio
But Havana has a new sensation
He′s really a modest guy
Although he's the hottest guy in Havana and here′s what he has to say
They call me Cuban Pete
I'm the king of the rumba beat
When I play the maracas
I go chick chicky boom, chick chicky boom
Yes sir, I'm Cuban Pete
I′m the craze of my native street
When I start to dance
Everything goes chick chicky boom, chick chicky boom
The Senoritas, they sing and how they swing with this rumbero
It′s very nice, so full of spice
And when they're dancin′ they bring a happy ring, the maraquero Singin' a song, all the day long
So if you like the beat
Take a lesson from Cuban Pete
And I′ll teach you to
Chick chicky boom, chick chicky boom, chick chicky boom
Si-Senorita, I know that you will like the chicky boom chick
'Cause it′s the dance of latin romance
And Cuban Pete doesn't teach you in a hurry like Authur Murry
You're now in Havana and there′s always manyana
So Senorita please, take it easy, do it with ease
And you′ll love it when you do the
Chick, chick chicky boom, chick chicky boom
Chick, chick, chick, chicky boom, chick chicky boom
Chick chicky boom
