Some city folks are staying at a place right near our farm The other night they gave a dance and held it in our barn A city band was playing while they danced around the floor They did one called the mambo that I never saw before Well, the mambo is a hoedown thats just got a Latin beat To me it looks just like theyre dancing on each others feet The feller who is calling has a stomach pain, no doubt When it starts to hurt him, hell stand right up and shout Ugh It sounds just like a breakdown and they play it mighty fast Instead of using fiddles they just use alone the brass If my brains ever jumbled, Ill have myself a fling Ill take a chance and learn to dance that crazy mambo thing [Instrumental Break] On Saturday I went down to the square dance in our town I told the fiddle player about this mambo dance I found He said if I describe it, he would try to play it too But when I tried to tell him, heres the best that I could do Well, the mambo is a hoedown thats just got a Latin beat To me it looks just like theyre dancing on each others feet The feller who is calling has a stomach pain, no doubt When it starts to hurt him, hell stand right up and shout Ugh It sounds just like a breakdown and they play it mighty fast Instead of using fiddles they just use alone the brass If my brains ever jumbled, Ill have myself a fling Ill take a chance and learn to dance that crazy mambo thing
