    Dance to my rumba
    Beat it [maybe a drum?], enjoy, look mama [maybe meaning "look at me and learn the steps."]
    Dance, look mama
    Beat it, enjoy, look
    Dancing the rumba beautifully. That's how I go.
    Hey hey mama
    Dance to it, dance
    Dance
    Dance this way [This a tentative translation, the expression I hear is actually unidiomatic]
    Dance to it, dance
    A Venezuelan in New York [maybe referring to himself]
    In California and everywhere
    I bring it to you [the rumba]
    So that you will enjoy a good thing
    Enjoy it with the rest of the world
    With the African and the rest of the world
    Dance to it
    Gringos! [This is funny. "Gringo" is a pejorative way that some South Americans have to refer to Anglo-Saxons. It's clear that some Americans are actually dancing to the music in the studio and receiving instructions from the singer, including this veiled semi-insult. Was Joni there too?]
    Left! Left! [maybe meaning use your left foot now]
    I say, Come on!
    I'm going now! [Or it could also be I'm "coming"!]
