Foghat Ubangi Stomp song lyrics

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
