Ubangi Stomp
Jerry Lee Lewis
UBANGI STOMP As recorded by Jerry Lee Lewis (From the 1958 Album JERRY LEE LEWIS) [Intro] [Verse 1] Well I rocked over Italy and rocked in Spain Rocked in Memphis it was all the same Well I rocked through Africa and roll of the ship G N.C. And seen them natives doin’ a hot-lookin’ skip I parted the weeds and looked over the swamp G7 N.C. I seen them cats doin’ the Ubangi stomp [Chorus] Ubangi-stomp with rock and roll Beats anything that’s ever been told Ubangi stomp Ubangi style G N.C. When it hits it’s gonna drive a cool cat wild [Piano Solo] [Verse 2] Well I looked up the chief he invited me in N.C. He said a hey big jam session’s ’bout to begin He handed me a tom-tom I picked up that beat G N.C. That crazy thing sent shivers to my feet I rocked and I rolled and I skipped with a smile G N.C. Done the Ubangi stomp till I rolled over dead [Piano Solo] [Verse 3] Well we rocked all night and part of the day Had a good rockin’ time with the chief’s daughter May I was makin’ a time and a-gettin’ to know G N.C. Then the captain said son we gotta go I said that’s alright you go right ahead I’ll do the Ubangi stomp ’till I roll over dead
