ubangi stomp

well i rocked over italy and rocked in spain

rocked in memphis

it was all the same

well

i rocked through africa and roll of the ship

and seen them natives doin' a hot-lookin' skip

i parted the weeds and looked over the swamp

i seen them cats doin' the ubangi stomp

ubangi-stomp with rock and roll

beats anything that's ever been told

ubangi stomp

ubangi style

when it hits

it's gonna drive a cool cat wild

well i looked up the chief

he invited me in

he said

a hey big jam session's 'bout to begin

he handed me a tom-tom

i picked up that beat

that crazy thing sent shivers to my feet

i rocked and i rolled and i skipped with a smile

done the ubangi stomp till i rolled over dead

well we rocked all night and part of the day

had a good rockin' time with the chief's daughter may

i was makin' a time and a-gettin' to know

then the captain said

son

we gotta go

i said that's alright

you go right ahead

i'll do the ubangi stomp 'till i roll over dead
