KING OF BONGO
Couplet
1. Mo-ma was queen of the mam-bo
Po-pa was king of the Con-go
Deep down in the jun-gle
I started han-ging my first bon-go
Refrain
King of the Bon-go
King of the Bon-go bong
2. E-very mon-key 'd like to be
In my place in-stead of me cause
I'm the king of the bon-go
The king of Bon-go bong
2. I want to the big town
Where ther's a lot of sound
From the jungle to the city
Lookin' for a bigger crown
So I played my Bongo
For the people of the big city
But they don't crazy
When I'm bangin' my boogie
3. Cause people like disco
And people like house
That's why they don't applause
When I'm bangin' on my bongo
They say that I'm a clown
Makin' too much dirty sound
They say there is no crown
For little monkey in this town
4. Nobody like to be
In my place instead of me
Cause nobody go crazy
When I'm bangin' on my boogie
But I don't like no disco
And I don't like the house
'Cause I'm born to rock
I'm born to pogo
5. When I'm bangin' on my bongo
All that swing belongs to me
I'm so happy there's nobody
In my place instead of me
I'm a king without a crown
Hangin' loose in the big town
And I'm born to rock
I'm born to pogo
