Composer(s): J. Leslie McFarland - Aaron Schroeder
Performer(s): Pat Boone



(Ooooohhhh!)
They did the Wang Dang
Taffy Apple Tango
They did the Wang Dang Taffy Apple Tango Mambo Cha Cha Cha
(How's it go?) I don't know

Last night at Papa Joe's my buddy met a lovely dove
She was the kind you never find but keep on dreamin' of
She did a dance we never saw before, but sure did love
It was the Wang Dang Taffy Apple Tango Mambo Cha Cha Cha
(Heel and toe?) I don't know (Oooohhh!)

Ooh-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
(Ooh-la-la-la-la-la-la)

The crowd was tappin' and a-clappin' as the music played
His heart was right in time with every little move she made
Though he was shy, she took his hand and said, "Don't be afraid
Let's do the Wang Dang Taffy Apple Tango Mambo Cha Cha Cha"
(Fast or slow?) I don't know (Oooohhh!)

Ooh-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
(Ooh-la-la-la-la-la-la)

He did a spin and shook his shoulder
To get the zing of it, the sway and swing of it
But every time he'd try to hold her
She'd shake and shout "Olé" (Olé)
And go the other way (Baaaahhh!)

Now all night long he did it wrong, but still it ended right
My buddy walked her home and got a kiss and held her tight
So you can bet he'll be at Papa Joe's tomorrow night
To do the Wang Dang Taffy Apple Tango Mambo Cha Cha Cha
(To and fro?) I don't know (Oooohhh!)

Ooh-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
(Ooh-la-la-la-la-la-la)

Now all night long he did it wrong
It ended right, they kissed goodnight
So you can bet he'll be at Papa Joe's tomorrow night
To do the Wang Dang Taffy Apple Tango Mambo Cha Cha Cha
(How's it go?) I'm a no gonna say (Oooohhh!)

Wang Dang Taffy-Apple Tango
Tang Wang Mambo Cha Cha Cha
Wang Dang...
