"Sweet And Gentle" lyrics

I was sweet and gentle
Kind of sentimental
No one will deny it
I was once so quiet

And then one magic night, I learned to do the mambo
And now I'll never be the same
For I have really heard a crazy Latin combo
And my muchacho is to blame

How can I be gentle
Sweet and sentimental
While the music's playing
And my heart is swaying

I find that I am even dancing when I'm walking
I'm haunted by that Latin beat
I hear the rhythm start whenever we are talking
I do the mambo in my sleep

Please be sweet and gentle
Treat me sentimental
For I'm temperamental
When I'm doing the mambo with you
