LYRICS
I was sweet and gentle
Kind of sentimental
No one will deny it
That I was once so quiet
And then one magic night
I learned to do the cha-cha
And now I’ll never be the same
For I have turned in 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
Whenever we are talking
I do the cha-cha in my sleep
ooh cha-cha
mmm…lalalala….

I was sweet and gentle
Kind of sentimental
No one will deny it
That I was once so quiet

And then one 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 music’s playing
I keep dancing the cha-cha all day
