They call me Cuban Pete,
I'am the king of the rumba beat,
When I play the maracas I go,
Chick-chicky-boom, chick-chicky-boom.
Yes, sir, I'am Cuban Pete,
I'm the crazy man down in the street,
When I start to dance everything goes,
Chick-chicky-boom, chick-chicky-boom.

The senoritas, they singin'
And they swing with their lumbero
It's very nice so full of spice.
And when they dance and they bring a happy ring without a care-o
Singin' a song all the day long.
So-o-o if you like the beat
Take a lesson from Cuban Pete
And I'll teach you to chick-chicky-boom
Chick-chicky-boom, chick-chicky-boom.

He's a really modest guy
Although he's the hottest guy
In Havana, in Havana.

Si senorita, I know
That you would like to chicky-boom, chick
It's very nice so full of spice.
I place my hand on your hip
And if you will just give me your hand
Then we shall try just you and I.
If you like the beat
Take a lesson from Cuban Pete
And I'll teach you to chick-chicky-boom
Chick-chicky-boom, chick-chicky-boom.
