Desi Arnaz Cuban Pete Lyrics

They call me cuban pete, I'm the king of the rhumba beat
when I play my 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 senorita, they sing and they swing with terampero
It's very nice, so full of spice
And when they dancin they bring a happy ring that era keros
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

Senora or Senorita solo: (optional)

They call me sally sweet, I'm the queen of delancy street when I start to dance everything goes
chick chicky boom, chick chicky boom

Excuse me Mr. Pete, (yes maam)
Have the cubans a different beat?
If they have will you teach me to
chick chick chicky boom, chick chicky boom

verse 2 (male solo)

It's very nice, so full of spice
I'll place my hand on your hip and if you will just give me your hand

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!!!! :)
