MAMBO MAN, THE
(Sonny Burke / Jack Elliott)


The Andrews Sisters - 1952



Have you met the Mambo Man
Direct from Cuba
Have you met the Mambo Man
Dancing along-long-long

He's a mumbo-jumbo man
The toast of Cuba
Have you met the Mambo Man
Selling his song-song-song

All ladies love him, no one above him
Keep thinking of him all day
When he dances, those tell-tale glances
Speak of romances and say

He does okay (Ugh!)
Lad's dynamite, every girl in sight
Wants to hold him tight

Have you met the Mambo Man
Direct from Cuba
You will love the Mambo Man
Dancing your way-way-way

(Orchestral Break)

Have you met the Mambo Man
Direct from Cuba
Have you met the Mambo Man
Dancing along-long-long

He's a mumbo-jumbo man
The toast of Cuba
You will love the Mambo Man
Dancing your way
OLÉ!
