Mambo I I I
Sesame Street Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I love to do the mambo
I, I, I
It is my favorite dance
I won't be shy
As long as I
Can mambo I, I, I!
I love to feel the rhythms
I, I, I
I feel like going with them
I could sigh
Whenever I
Mambo I, I, I
It's not the cha cha or the tango, oh, no
It isn't even the fandango, no, no
To do this dance
I'd take a chance
And try
Oh, I would try!
I, I, I
I love to do the mambo
I, I, I
It is my favorite dance
Can't tell you why I love my
Mambo I, I, I
It's not the cha cha or the tango
It isn't even the fandango
To do this dance
I'd take a chance
And try
Oh, I would try!
I, I, I
I love to do the mambo
I, I, I
It is my favorite dance
I won't be shy as long as I
Mambo I, I, I!
I love it, my mambo
I, I, I
I love it, my mambo
I, I, I
I, I, I!
The lyrics of Sesame Street's Mambo I I I express the singer's love for the mambo dance. The repeated "I, I, I" emphasizes the personal enjoyment that comes from dancing the mambo, which is established as the singer's favorite dance. There is a sense of freedom associated with the dance; the singer "won't be shy" as long as they are able to mambo. The song suggests that the rhythmic feeling of the mambo is what draws the singer to it. The song also references other dances, such as the cha cha and the tango, suggesting that while the singer may enjoy those dances, they do not compare to the mambo. The song ends with a repetition of the singer's enjoyment of the mambo dance.
The song is short and repetitive, but the lyrics convey a clear message of personal enjoyment and passion for the mambo. The song's energy and celebration of dance make it a popular choice for children's dance classes or parties.

Same. I remember back in 1st grade my teacher showing an entire VCR of these Sesame Street songs to the class.

What an iconic and exuberant number. Love the 'Elmopalooza' special, this is one of a number of fantastic numbers featured. And I low-key get chills right as the trumpets first come in, after the percussion crescendo. A Sesame favorite, no doubt.
