Panamania Lyrics

from "Swing High, Swing Low" 1937 film
Coslow /Siegel

Dorothy Lamour (film soundtrack)
Panamania!
It's a tempo that's so sensational,
Every civilised town and nation'll
Do it!
Panamania!
Nowadays every dance academy
Exercises your whole anatomy
To it!

It came from the Canal Zone,
Hot fiery gal zone!
While fever that rages,
Watch out, it's contagious!

I've got Panamania,
White hot Panamania!
Girls from Pennsylvania
And Peru know how to do their

New dance,
It's amazing!
You dance,
And a blazing
Romance
Starts to get the best of you;
What can you do?
One mad session
And all expression
Will vanish in you!
Senses reeling,
You'll be revealing
The Spanish in you!

Won't need your decision,
Your own intuition
Tells you your condition,
Panamania!

Panamania, Panamania!

Panamania, Panamania!

I've got Panamania,
White hot Panamania!
Girls from Pennsylvania
And Peru know how to do their
New dance,
It's amazing!
You dance,
And a blazing
Romance
Starts to get the best of you;
What can you do?

One mad session
And all expression
Will vanish in you!
Senses reeling,
You'll be revealing
The Spanish in you, Spanish in you!

Won't need your decision,
Your own intuition
Tells you your condition,
Panamania, Panamania!
Panamania!
Panamania!
Panamania!
Ohhhhh!
