A keia mamang gwele step on the dancin' floor Hips be windin', DJ rewindin' Take it to the island way
Let's dance to the island music and enjoy ourselves

My bestie and your bestie Dancin' by di fire Your bestie say she wan' party So can we make these flames go higher?
J.W.'s friend and someone else's friend are still dancing by the fire, wanting more fun and excitement

Repeated chorus of 'Iko, iko a nae' to keep the party going and the energy high
