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
And seen them natives
Doin' a hot-lookin' skip
I parted the weeds
And looked over the swamp
I seen them cats
Doin' the Ubangi stomp
Ubangi-stomp
With rock and roll
Beats
Anything that's ever been told
Ubangi stomp
Ubangi style
When it hits it's gonna drive
A cool cat wild

Well I looked up
The chief
He invited me in
He said, a hey big jam
Session's 'bout to begin
He handed me a tom-tom
I picked up that beat
That crazy thing
Sent shivers to my feet
I rocked and I rolled
And I skipped with a smile
Done the Ubangi stomp
Till I rolled over dead

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
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
