Lyrics

My life was a mess
I was broke and depressed
I almost went down in defeat.

But I found a way
To get rid of my stress
I just apply a little Latin beat.

I’m dancing on the poverty line
But everything is going just fine
I tango my blues away!

The rent is due, the car’s on the blink
But poverty can't drive me to drink
I tango my blues away!

When they play La Bamba
I dance a Cuban Samba
And I step into a new romance.

And when I do the rumba
I shake my little bumba
And I go into a South American trance!

Oh come and dance the tango with me
Hold me close and passionately
Tango, dip and sway.

And while the world spins out of control
We’ll take an Argentinean stroll.
We’ll tango our blues away!
