ooh
they did the wang dang taffyapple tango
they did the wang dang taffyapple tango mambo cha cha cha
heel and toe i don’t know
last night at papa joe’s my buddy met a lovely dove
she was the kind you never find but keep on dreamin’ of
she did a dance we never saw before but sure did love
it was the wang dang taffyapple tango mambo cha cha cha
fast or slow i don’t know ooh
ooh la la la la la la la
ooh la la la la la la
the crowd was tappin’ and aclappin’ as the music played
his heart was right in time with every little move she made
though he was shy she took his hand and said don’t be afraid
let’s do the wang dang taffyapple tango mambo cha cha cha
nice and slow i don’t know
ooh la la la la la la la
ooh la la la la la la
he did a spin and shook his shoulder
to get the zing of it the sway and swing of it
but every time he tried to hold her
she’d shake and shout olé olé then go the other way
now all night long he did it wrong but still it ended right
my buddy walked her home and got a kiss and held her tight
so you can bet he’ll be at papa joe’s tomorrow night
to do the wang dang taffyapple tango mambo cha cha cha
to and fro i don’t know
ooh la la la la la la la
response
now all night longhe did it wrong it ended rightthey kissed goodnight
so you can bet he’ll be at papa joe’s tomorrow night
to do the wang dang taffyapple tango mambo cha cha cha
how’s it go i’m a no gonna say
wang dang taffyapple tango
fade
tang wang mambo cha cha cha
wang dang taffyapple tango
