Well, I rocked over Italy and I rocked over Spain
I rocked in Memphis, it was all the same
I rocked in Africa and rolled off ship
And seen them n***as doing a dollar a skip
I parted the weeds, looked over the swamp
I seen them cats doing the Ubangi Stomp

Ubangi stomp with the rock and roll
Beats anything that you ever been told
Ubangi Stomp, Ubangi Style
When a beat just drives a cool cat wild

Well, I looked at the chief and he invited me in
Said a heat 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
I rocked and I rolled and I skipped with a smile
Ubangi Stomp, Ubangi Style

Ubangi stomp with the rock and roll
Beats anything that you ever been told
Ubangi Stomp, Ubangi Style
When a beat just drives a cool cat wild

Well, we rocked all night and part of the day
Had a good rocking time with the chief's daughter Mae
I was making time and gettin' in the know
And the Captain said, "Son, we gotta go"
I said, "That's alright, you go on ahead
I'm gonna Ubangi Stomp until I roll over dead"
Ubangi stomp with the rock and roll
Beats anything that you ever been told
Ubangi stomp, Ubangi style
When a beat just drives a cool cat wild
When a beat just drives a cool cat wild
When a beat just drives a cool cat wild
When a beat just drives a cool cat wild
