Hey Mambo (ft. Kid Creole & The Coconuts)

Nobody knew who he really was
But they called him Mambo when he played
He became the king
King of Latin swing
And all the music that he made

Hey Mambo, did your mama teach you that?
Hey Mambo, did she know what she begat?

And they used to come in their fancy threads
And he always turned them inside out
They would jam the floor
And they would beg for more
And when they got it they would shout

"Hey Mambo, did your mama teach you that?
Hey Mambo, did she know what she begat?"

Ooh-wee
Take it away

Hey Mambo, did your mama teach you that?
Whoa-whoa-whoa
Hey Mambo, did she know what she begat?

Take it away
Makuna
Do it again

Hey, Mambo
Hey, Mambo
Hey, Mambo
Hey, Mambo
Hey, Mambo
