Reggae Train

Wacka wacka
Wacka wacka

Hey eh eh hey, little girl,
Little one girl
All dressed in blue
You standin′ in the corner
Like you don't know what to do
Do you see that man
In his barefoot pants?
Just take him by his hand and say
Come let′s dance
The John Crow Skank
Baby will you do that?
Hun
The John Crow Skank
Baby will you do that?

Wacka wacka
Wacka wacka wacka

Lift the right foot out
And you jump to the back
Shake your shoulders,
Get right on the beat
That's the John Crow Skank
Baby will you do that?
Hey!

Lift your arms,
And you rock your body line
Jump to the back, baby, baby
Shake it in the line,
The John Crow Skank
Baby will you do that?
Hun

Little one mama,
Dressed in your hot pants
You're standing there
Why don′t you jump and prance?
You see that man
In his barefoot pants?
Just take him by his hands and say
Come Let′s dance
The John Crow Skank
Baby, you are doin' fine
Hun!
The John Crow Skank
Baby you are doin′ fine
Hey!

Wacka wacka
Wacka wacka wacka
Wacka wacka
Hey!

Reggae Train

Wacka wacka
Wacka wacka

Hey eh eh hey, ma petite fille,
Ma petite fille
Toute vêtue de bleu
Tu te tiens dans le coin
Comme si tu ne savais pas quoi faire
Tu vois cet homme
En pantalon pieds nus?
Prends-le simplement par la main et dis
Viens, dansons
Le John Crow Skank
Bébé, tu veux faire ça?
Chérie
Le John Crow Skank
Bébé, tu veux faire ça?

Wacka wacka
Wacka wacka wacka

Lève le pied droit
Et saute en arrière
Secoue tes épaules,
Rejoins le rythme
C'est le John Crow Skank
Bébé, tu veux faire ça?
Hé!

Lève les bras,
Et balance ton corps
Saute en arrière, bébé, bébé
Secoue-le dans la ligne,
Le John Crow Skank
Bébé, tu veux faire ça?
Chérie

Ma petite maman,
Vêtue de ton pantalon chaud
Tu es là
Pourquoi tu ne sautes pas et ne danses pas?
Tu vois cet homme
En pantalon pieds nus?
Prends-le simplement par les mains et dis
Viens, dansons
Le John Crow Skank
Bébé, tu es bien
Chérie!
Le John Crow Skank
Bébé, tu es bien
Hé!

Wacka wacka
Wacka wacka wacka
Wacka wacka
Hé!
