One step back, one step side
Rock step, side step,
Step...step...step
Why can't I get it in my head
Feet of iron, feet of lead,
brain of mush, brain near dead
Step rock step...
StepStepStep
Feet of rock, brain of lead
Can't get the beat
into my feet,
can't get the mambo in my head
Mambo Jumbo
Feet of gumbo
StepStepStep
Rock that rear!
Others do it, but
I'm not in gear
Can't find the beat
Can't find my feet
Oh, feet of mush
Head of lead
Brain of rock
I'm near dead
Mambo beats me, it defeats me.
Have mercy on this helpless gringo!
Can't we please go back to tango?
