Hey Shango

Hey Shango
Samba Bambara
Hey Shango
Hey Papa Legba
Hey Shango
Don care what mi say
Hey Shango
Mi gwon dance tha bambolay

Samba Bambara
Led the insurrection
At the plantation
At Fort Rosalie
Well, Louis Cargo
Was the executioner
In the Place d'Armes
S-s-sound the alarm

Hey Shango

Hey Shango
Chato y Chato
Hey Shango
On Saint Joseph's Day
Hey Shango

Hey Shango
Hey Papa Legba
Hey Shango
Dey don care wha mi say
Hey Shango

Samba Bambara
He paid for his transgression
By Louis Cargo
At his discresion
He followed the conspiracy
He was charged with the insurgency
In the Place d'Armes
S-s-sound the alarm(s)

Hey Shango
Samba Bambara
Hey Shango
Chato y Chato
Hey Shango
On Saint Joseph's Day
Hey Shango
He gwon dance the bambolay

Hey Shango

Hey Shango
Hey Papa Legba
Hey Shango
He don care what mi say
Hey Shango
Mi gwon dance the bambolay
Mi gwon dance the bambolay
Mi gwon dance the bambolay
Mi gwon dance the bambolay

The White Devil following
In his cane and his clothes
Where they laid him to rest
Don't nobody know
Hey

Hey Shango
Samba Bambara
Hey Shango
Chato y Chato
Hey Shango
On Saint Joseph's Day
Hey Shango
He gwon dance the bambolay

Hey Shango
Samba Bambara
Hey Shango
Hey Papa Legba
Hey Shango
He don care what mi say
Hey Shango
Mi gwon dance the bambolay
Mi gwon dance the bambolay
Mi gwon dance the bambolay
Mi gwon dance the bambolay

Hey Shango
