Miami Beach Rhumba

Miami Beach Rhumba - Xavier Cugat

I started out to go to Cuba

Soon I was at Miami beach

There not so very far from Cuba

Oh what a rhumba they teach

Palm trees are whispering yo te quiero

What could I do but stay awhile

I met a Cuban caballero

We danced in true Latin style

So I never got to Cuba

But I got all it's atmosphere

Why even yuba and his tuba

They played a night right here

I'll save havana for mañ ana

Meanwhile I've heaven in my reach

I found the charm of old havana

In a rhumba at Miami beach
