Ubangi Stomp
The Busters Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I rocked in Memphis, it was all the same
Till I rocked to Africa, rolled off the ship
Seen them natives do a hard looking skip
I parted the weeds and looked over the swamp
And I've seen them cats doing the Ubangi stomp
Ubangi stomp, reggae roll
Ubangi stomp, Ubangi style
When it hits it drives them Ubangis wild
Well, I looked the chief, he invited me in
He said "hey big jam session bound to begin"
He handled me a tom tom, I picked up the beat
That crazy thing shivered down to my feet
I rocked and rolled I skipped with a smile
I've done the Ubangi stomp, Ubangi style
Well, I rocked all night and part of the day
Had a good rocking time with the chiefs daughter May
Was making good time and she give me the no
When the captain says "son, we've got to go"
I said "that's alright man, you go right ahead,
I'm gonna Ubangi stomp till roll over dead"
