Ohhhhhhh I was sweet and gentle
|
(He was sweet and gentle)
|
Kind of sentimental
|
(Kind of sentimental)
|
No one will deny it
|
(No one will deny it)
|
I was once so quiet
|
And then the magic night
|
I learned to do the cha cha
|
And now I'll never be the same
|
For I have turned into a dancing Cucaracha
|
And my muchacha is to blame
|
How can I be gentle
|
Sweet and sentimental
|
While the cha cha's playing
|
And my heart is swaying
|
I find that I am even dancing
|
when I'm walking
|
I'm haunted by that cha cha beat
|
I hear the rhythm start
|
When we are talking
|
I do the cha cha in my sleep
|
|
MUSIC BREAK
|
|
I was sweet and gentle
|
(He was sweet and gentle)
|
Kind of sentimental
|
(Kind of sentimental)
|
No one will deny it
|
(No one will deny it)
|
I was once so quiet
|
And then the magic night
|
I learned to do the cha cha
|
And now I'll never be the same
|
For I have turned into a dancing Cucaracha
|
And my muchacha is to blame
|
|
Please be sweet and gentle
|
(Please be sweet and gentle)
|
Treat me sentimental
|
(Treat him sentimental)
|
For I'm tempermental
|
(Cha cha cha cha)
|
When I cha cha with you
|
Cha cha cha, cha cha cha
|
Cha cha cha oooooooo
