Don't run from a good time in summer
Or you'll fall into winter
Just hitch a ride with your favorite drummer
Pay no mind where we end up

You and I can send postcards from a cabana
Somewhere in paradise

You've gotta live it up
Until you get what you want, my friend
You've gotta live it up
Until you get what you want
Mama, teach me to tango
Oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh

You can stand so close to the truth
So you don't lose your humor
Oh, you say, "Company's arriving soon"
So let's get exiting sooner

You and I can send postcards from a cabana
Somewhere in paradise

You've gotta live it up (oh, live it up)
Until you get what you want, my friend
You've gotta live it up (oh, live it up)
Until you get what you want
Mama, teach me to tango
Oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh

You've gotta live it up (oh, live it up)
Until you get what you want, my friend
You've gotta live it up (oh, live it up)
Until you get what you want
Mama, teach me to tango
Oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh
