Iko-Iko - Captain Jack

A veces las letras no tienen mucho sentido
y parecen una colcha de retazos de culturas y tradiciones orales.

Sea como sea,
es chévere cuando se vuelven fiesta :-)





(I-KO I-KO!)

(¡Arriba Caballero!)

/ Talking about
Hey now! Hey now!
Hey now! Hey now!
(I-KO, I-KO -Andé')

Yo como fino
I eat Andé'
Yo como fin-Andé' /

I-KO, I-KO
Ay - Yeah!
Hey!
(x2)


My grandma and your grandma
Were sitting by the fire
My grandma told your grandma:
"I'm gonna set your flag on fire"

Look at my king all dressed in red
(I-KO I-KO Andé')
I betcha five dollars he'll kill you dead
(Yo como fin-Andé')


(Chorus)


Singing this song with Captain Jack
Iko Iko aah-yeah - hey
Party all night, the Captain's back
Iko Iko aah-yeah -hey!

My flag boy and your flag boy
were sitting by the fire
My flag boy told your flag boy:
"I'm gonna set your flag on fire"

See that guy all dressed in green?
(I-KO I-KO Andé')
He's not a man, he's a loving machine
(Yo como fin-Andé')


¡Arriba caballero!

Hooray Hooray, Holi Holiday!
Hooray Hooray, Holi Holiday!
(x2)

(Chorus)
