I, I, I
I love to do the mambo
I, I, I
It is my favorite dance
I won't be shy
As long as I
Can mambo I, I, I!

I, I, I
I love to feel the rhythms
I, I, I
I feel like going with them
I could sigh
Whenever I
Mambo I, I, I

It's not the cha cha or the tango, oh, no
It isn't even the fandango, no, no
To do this dance
I'd take a chance
And try ....
Oh, I would try!

I, I, I
I love to do the mambo
I, I, I
It is my favorite dance
Can't tell you why I love my
Mambo I, I, I

It's not the cha-cha or the tango
It isn't even the fandango
To do this dance
I'd take a chance
And try ....
Oh, I would try!

I, I, I
I love to do the mambo
I, I, I
It is my favorite dance
I won't be shy as long as I
Mambo I, I, I!

I love it, my mambo
I, I, I
I love it, my mambo
I, I, I
I, I, I!
