| Well I rocked over Italy, I rocked over Spain
|
| I rocked in Memphis, it was all the same
|
| 'Til I rocked to Africa and rolled off ship
|
| And seen them natives doing a crazy looking skip
|
| I parted the weeds and looked over the swamp
|
| I seen them cats doing the Ubangi stomp
|
| Ubangi stomp with rock and roll
|
| Beats anything that’s ever been told
|
| Ubangi stomp, Ubangi style
|
| When it hits, it drives a cool cat wild
|
| I looked up the chief and he invited me in
|
| He said, heap big jam session 'bout to begin
|
| He handed me a tom-tom, I picked up the beat
|
| That crazy thing sent shivers to my feet
|
| Rocked and rolled and I skipped with a smile
|
| Ubangi stomp, Ubangi style
|
| Ubangi stomp with rock and roll
|
| Beats anything that’s ever been told
|
| Ubangi stomp, Ubangi style
|
| When it hits, it drives a cool cat wild
|
| Well we rocked all night and part of the day
|
| Had a good rockin' time with the chief’s daughter Mae
|
| I was making time and gettin' in the know
|
| When the captain said son we gotta go
|
| I said that’s alright, you go right ahead
|
| I’m gonna Ubangi stomp until I roll over dead
|
| Ubangi stomp with rock and roll
|
| Beats anything that you ever told
|
| Ubangi stomp, Ubangi style
|
| When it hits, it drives a cool cat wild |
