Everybody loves to cha cha cha 
 Little children like to cha cha cha 
 They like to cha cha cha, they like to cha cha cha 
 Everybody likes to cha cha cha 


 Took my baby to the hop last night and what to my surprise 
 When we got there she hit me with the news 
 Right between the eyes, yeah 


 She said she couldn't do the cha cha cha 
 She said she couldn't do the cha cha cha 
 She couldn't cha cha cha, no, she couldn't cha cha cha 
 My baby couldn't do the cha cha cha 


 I told her not to worry 
 They'd play some other dance 
 But we sat there for an hour and a half 
 And we never got a chance 


 Every song they played was the cha cha cha 
 Every song they played was the cha cha cha 
 "Tom Dooley", cha cha cha, "Tea For Two", cha cha cha 
 Every number was the cha cha cha 


 I told her not to worry there's only one thing we can do 
 Baby, if you let me take you by the hand 
 I'm gonna teach this dance to you 


 Then, I told her one two, cha cha cha 
 One two, cha cha cha 
 And up now, baby and back now 
 That's right, turn now, alright let's cross now 
 I taught my baby how to cha cha cha 


 We kept on dancing 
 And was I surprised, for you see 
 After we practiced it for a little while 
 She was doing it better than me 


 Now my baby loves to do the cha cha cha 
 She loves to do the cha cha cha 
 She likes her, she likes to cha cha cha 
 Everybody likes to cha cha cha 


 They do it 
 One two, cha cha cha, alright 
 One two, cha cha cha 
 And up now, alright back now 
 Alright baby let's cross now and turn now 
 Whoa-oh-oh-oh
