Ubangi Stomp

Well I rocked over Italy and I rocked over Spain

I rocked in Memphis it was all the same

Well I rocked through Africa and rolled off the ship

And seen them natives doin' an odd lookin' skip

I parted the weeds and looked over the swamp

And I seen them cats doin' the Ubangi Stomp

Ubangi Stomp with the rock and roll

Beats any thing that you've ever been told

The Ubangi Stomp Ubangi style

When it hits it drives a cool cat wild

Well I looked up the chief he invited me in

He said a heep 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

I done the Ubangi Stomp Ubangi style

Well we rocked all night and part of the day

Had a good rockin' time with the chief's daughter May

I was makin' the time and a gettin' in the know

The captain said son, we gotta go

I said that's alright you go right ahead

I'm gonna Ubangi Stomp 'till I roll over dead
