Ubangi Stomp

Am 
Well I rocked over Italy 

And I rocked over Spain 

Rocked in Memphis, it was all the same 
Dm 
'Til I rocked to Africa 

And rolled off the ship 
Am 
Seen them natives do an odd looking skip 
E 
Parted the weeds and looked over the swamp 
Am 
And I seen them cats doing the Ubangi Stomp 

Dm 
Ubangi stomp, rock and roll 
Am 
Beats any stomp that you ever been told 
E 
Ubangi stomp, Ubangi style 
Am 
When it hits it drives them Ubangis wild 

Am 
Well I looked up the chief he invited me in 

He said, "Hey big jam session's 

About to begin" 
Dm 
He handed me a tom tom, I picked up the beat 
Am 
That crazy thing send shivers to my feet 
E 
I rocked and I rolled, skipped with a smile 
Am 
Gonna Ubangi stomp man, Ubangi style 

Dm 
Ubangi stomp, rock and roll 
Am 
Beats any stomp that you ever been told 
E 
Ubangi stomp, Ubangi style 
Am 
When it hits it drives them Ubangis wild 

Am 
Well I rocked all night and part of the day 

Had a good rockin' time 

With the chief's daugher May 
Dm 
We were making good time and gettin' to know 
Am 
When the Captain said, "Sorry we gotta go." 
E 
Well, well that's all right man now 

Go right ahead 
Am 
Gonna Ubangi stomp 'till I roll over dead 

Dm 
Ubangi stomp, rock and roll 
Am 
Beats any stomp that you ever been told 
E 
Ubangi stomp, Ubangi style 
Am 
When it hits it drives them Ubangis wild
