I dance the rumba  the salsa  the cha cha 
the limbo  the foxtrott and even the tango 
with ladies and girlies with mummies and babies 
and Dj´s gone play this cause its on their playlist 
and on my journey through all of these dances 
I found a lot of hot sax romances 
but Mambo seeked me and Mambo freaked me 
than she realesed me   and this is how we go 

Mambo Mambo eh eh 
the babes are all around me 
Mambo Mambo eh eh 
dancin´ all night long 
Mambo Mambo eh eh 
the babes are all around me 
Mambo Mambo eh eh 
to the break of dawn 

... 

Mambo Mambo eh eh 
the babes are all around me 
Mambo Mambo eh eh 
dancin´ all night long 
Mambo Mambo eh eh 
the babes are all around me 
Mambo Mambo eh eh 
thank you for this dance
