Lyrics

By steve hague and tom seufert

We were playing at a club in costa rica
Where the latin lovers come to find romance
When the lady who was dancin' on the tables looked our way

I wanna tango all night, mambo till daylight
That was all she said
But when she showed us how, I almost lost my head

Then she took us to a little hacienda
We were hopin' that her mama was away
Then the lady who was dancin' through her garden turned to say:

I wanna tango all night, mambo till daylight
That was all she said
But when she showed us how, I almost lost my head

I wanna tango all night, rumba by moonlight
That was what she said
And when she told us why, our faces all turned red

We'll do the samba too
And cha cha through the room
But when her mama, sisters and brothers danced they
They began to sing:

We wanna tango all night, that was what they said
And when they all showed up, I knew we've been misled

We wanna tango all night, ay ay ay ay ay
We're gonna mambo all night, ay ay ay ay ay
We're gonna rumba all night, ay ay ay ay ay

I said, tango all night
Rumba in the moonlight, (ay ay ay ay ay)
We're gonna tango all night, (ay ay ay ay ay)
We're gonna tango all night, (ay ay ay ay ay)
Oh, rumba all night long. (ay ay ay ay ay)
