Ubangi Stomp

A
Well, I rocked over Italy and I 
rocked over Spain
A
I rocked in Memphis, it was all the 
same
A      D
Till I rocked to Africa - rolled off
 the ship
A
Seen them natives do a hard looking 
skip
E
I parted the weeds and looked over 
the swamp
E        A
And I've seen them cats doing the 
Ubangi stomp

[Chorus]
D
Ubangi stomp - reggae roll
A
Beats any stomp that you've ever 
been told

E
Ubangi stomp - Ubangi style
E       A
When it hits it drives them Ubangis 
wild

[Verse 2]
A
Well, I looked the chief, he invited
 me in
A
He said "hey big jam session bound 
to begin"
A  D
He handled me a tomtom, I picked up 
the beat
A
That crazy thing shivered down to my
 feet
E
I rocked and rolled I skipped with a
 smile
E             A
I've done the Ubangi stomp, Ubangi 
style

[Verse 3]
A
Well, I rocked all night and part of
 the day
A
Had a good rocking time with the 
chiefs daughter May
A   D
Was making good time and she give me
 the no
A
When the captain says "son, we've 
got to go"
E
I said "that's alright man, you go 
right ahead
E         A
I'm gonna Ubangi stomp till roll 
over dead"
