Babalú

Babalú, Babalú
Babalú, ah, yay
Ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-Babalú, ah, yay

The jungle drums were madly beating
In the glare of eerie light
While the natives kept repeating
Ancient jungle rite

All at once the dusky warriors began to
Raise their arms to skies above
And the natives danced a poet to chant to
His voodoo goddess of love

Oh, great Babalú
I'm so lost and forsaken
Oh, great Babalú
Bring back the love you've taken
You can't ignore all the dreams
That once were mine
If only you used some mystic sign
Oh, great Babalú
Bring him back to me

(Babalú, ah, yay, Babalú, ah, yay)
Hey, Babalú, Babalú, Babalú, ah, yay
(Babalú, ah, yay, Babalú, ah, yay)
Hey, Babalú, Babalú, Babalú, ah, yay
(Babalú, ah, yay, Babalú, ah, yay)
Brr, ring, ting, Babalú, ah, yay
(Babalú, ah, yay, Babalú, ah, yay)
Babalú, ah, yay
