Sweet and Gentle
Martin Ledyard, Otilio del Portal, George Thorn
I was sweet and gentle
Ah, kind of sentimental
No one will deny it
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 the same
Oh, 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 walking
I do the cha cha in my sleep
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 walking
I do the cha cha in my sleep
I do the cha cha in my sleep
I do the cha cha in my sleep
Cha, cha, cha
