Hear the chorus?
Back to back,
belly to belly,
I don't care a damn,
I done bed already.
Back to back,
belly to belly,
was a jumpy jamboree.
Hear them singing?
Back to back,
belly to belly,
I don't care a damn,
I done bed already.
Back to back,
belly to belly,
was a jumpy jamboree.
It was a jumpy jamboree,
took place in a New York cemetery.
Was a jumpy jamboree,
took place in a New York cemetery,
jumpies from all over the island.
Some of them were dead calypsonians,
since the season was carnival,
they all got together in Bacchanal.
Hear them singing?
Back to back,
belly to belly,
I don't care a damn,
I done bed already.
Back to back,
belly to belly,
was a jumpy jamboree.
Hear the chorus?
Back to back,
belly to belly,
I don't care a damn,
I done bed already.
Back to back,
belly to belly,
was a jumpy jamboree.
One female zombie won't behave.
See how she's jumping up on the grave.
In one hand, she's holding a quarter brum.
With the other, she is knocking conga drum.
The lead singer start to make his rhyme
while the other zombies rattle their bones in time.
One bystander had this to say.
It was a treat to see the zombies break away.
Hear them singing back to back, belly to belly,
I don't care, I done, I done that already.
Back to back, belly to belly was a zombie
tambourine.
Hear the chorus?
Back to back,
belly to belly,
I don't care,
I done,
I done
that already.
Back to back,
belly to belly was a zombie tambourine.
Left and right things going sweet till
a bystander mashed the zombie feet.
The zombie raised up his finger to warn,
saying,
Mr. Take care you mash me corn.
The funniest thing you could ever see
was a zombie eating codfish and congee.
I never see more morby or ginger beer than at
the zombie parade that took place last year.
Hear the chorus?
Back to back,
belly to belly,
I don't care,
I done,
I done that already.
Back to back,
belly to belly was a zombie tambourine.
It was a zombie tambourine.
It was a zombie tambourine.
It was a Jamby Jamboree!
