Well I'm the same old girl that I used to be 
I haven't changed at all 
Got the same old walk, the same old talk 
That would run you up the wall 
I got the same old face and the same old smile and 
The same old baby blues 
And I'm still doing the rhumba, baby 
I'm still the girl for you
 
I'm still doing the rhumba baby 
I can't seem to quit 
If my mama catches us doing the rhumba 
My mama would just pitch a fit 
But I can't help myself, it's much bigger than me 
If I were you, I would hang onto a rhumba girl like me
 
Well there's lots of girls on the floor tonight 
With a lot slicker steps than me 
The boogaloo, the funky broadway 
Are such a pretty sight to see 
My step might be old fashioned 
But that's just fine with me 
Cause I got a couple of rhumba steps 
That I think you'd like to see

Darlin' now I'm still doing the rhumba baby 
I can't seem to quit 
If my mama catches us doing the rhumba 
My Mama would just pitch a fit 
But I can't help myself, it's much bigger than me 
If I were you, I would hang onto a rhumba girl like me
 
Well I'm the same old girl that I used to be 
I haven't changed at all 
Got the same old walk, the same old talk 
That would run you up the wall 
I got the same old face and the same old smile and 
The same old baby blues 
And I'm still doing the rhumba, baby 
I'm still the girl for you
 
I'm still doing the rhumba baby 
I can't seem to quit 
If my mama catches us doing the rhumba 
My mama would just pitch a fit 
But I can't help myself, it's much bigger than me 
If I were you, I would hang onto a rhumba girl like me
