Harry Belafonte - Zombie Jamboree Lyrics

Lyrics Zombie Jamboree - Harry Belafonte



It was a Zombie Jamboree
Took place in a New York cemetery
It was a Zombie Jamboree
Took place in a New York cemetery
Zombies from all parts of the Island
Some of them was a great Calypsonians
Since the season was Carnival
They get together in bacchanal
And they singing
Back to back, belly to belly
Don't give a damn, I done dead already
Back to back, belly to belly
At the Zombie Jamboree
Back to back, belly to belly
I don't give a damn, I done dead already
Oho back to back, belly to belly
At the Zombie Jamboree
One female Zombie wouldn't behave
See how she jumping out of the grave
In one hand she holding drum
With other hand she knocking Congo drum
Believe singer start to make his rhyme
The other Zombies are racking thyme
One bystander had this to say
It was a trip to see the Zombies break away
And they singing
Back to back, belly to belly
Don't give a damn, I done dead already
Oho back to back, belly to belly
At the Zombie Jamboree
Back to back, belly to belly
Don't give a damn, I done dead already
Oho back to back, belly to belly
At the Zombie Jamboree
Now I must speak to Miss Brigit Bardot
And say, "Miss Bardot take it slow"
Couse' all the men think they're Casanova
When they see that she's bare foot all over
Even old men out into beaker
Find their hearts getting weaker and weaker
So we must ask her for your sake and mine
At least to wear her ear rings part at the time
And they singing
Back to back, belly to belly
Don't give a damn, I done dead already
Oho back to back, belly to belly
At the Zombie Jamboree
Back to back, belly to belly
Don't give a damn, I done dead already
Back to back, belly to belly
At the Zombie Jamboree
I think people what drums in Cango
And he thinks what drums in Cango
So its up to us you and me
To put an end to Catastrophe
We must appeal to their goodness of heart
To put them all do their part
Cause if this Atomic war begin
They wont even have a part to breech in
And they singing
Back to back, belly to belly
Don't give a damn, I done dead already
Back to back, belly to belly
At the Zombie Jamboree
Back to back, belly to belly
Don't give a damn, I done dead already
Oho back to back, belly to belly
At the Zombie Jamboree
Back to back, belly to belly
I don't give a damn, I done dead already
Back to back, belly to belly
At the Zombie Jamboree
Back to back, belly to belly
Don't give a damn, I done dead already
Back to back, belly to belly
At the Zombie Jamboree
Back to back, belly to belly
I don't give a damn, I done dead already
Oho back to back, belly to belly
At the Zombie Jamboree
