Sweet And Gentle

Sweet And Gentle - Allen/Alan Dale

Ohhhhhhh I was sweet and gentle

Kind of sentimental

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

He was sweet and gentle

Treat me sentimental

For I'm tempermental

When I cha cha with you
