though many artists have been credited with the creation of this music style, such as Damaso Perez Prado, (who was only the first to popularize it) the true father of mambo is Israel "Cahao" Lopez; in collaboration with his brother; both residing in Cuba at the time. During it's creation, the two were writing Danzons, and Mambo was the name of a favorite of theirs, it only later became a form of music.

What are the lyrics to the song 'Mambo Italiano'?

The song Mambo Italiano has an Italian title and English lyrics. The reason lies in the English-speaking audiences for which it is intended, as a 1954-released composition by New Jersey-born composer and lyricist Bob Merrill (May 17, 1921 - February 17, 1998) and a recording by Kentucky-born cabaret singer Rosemary Clooney (May 23, 1928 - June 29, 2002). The lyrics take the following, original form:A girl went back to Napolibecause she missed the scenery,the native dances, and the charming songs.But, wait a minute! Something's wrong!Hey, mambo! Mambo Italiano!Hey, mambo! Mambo Italiano!Go, go, go! You mixed up siciliano!All you Calabraise-a do the mambo like crazy.Hey mambo! Don't wanna tarantella!Hey, mambo!
