Black Chant
Ooooooo
o yambambó yambambó yambambé.
The congo solongo rings
the very black black rings
congo solongo from songo
dances yambó on one foot.
Mamatomba mamatomba
serembe cuseremba.
Ooooooo
o yambambó yambambó yambambé.
The black man sings and gets drunk
the black man gets drunk and sings
the black man sings and gets drunk
the black man sings and leaves.
Acuememe serembó
ae
acuememe serembó
aé
yambó ae, yambó ae, yambó.
Tamba tamba tamba tamba
tamba of the black man who falls
tomb of the black man damn
damn that the black man falls
yamba yambó yambambé
ae
yamba yambó yambambé
ae yamba ae yambó ae
yambambó ae yambambé ae...
