Lyrics

[Verse 1] Playing Shango Man up in Pari Land So miserable, mocking Shango people Well, a woman slap me with a broom Meh head start to spin On meh forehead she brand me with a spoon And she start to sing, oh oh! [Chorus] Ojo Romey O! You should see me dance the Shango Ah could feel the rhythm roll Deep down in meh soul Ho-sign Jahwayla Ah beat the drum to bar Lucifer Alar garda fee-leh fu-osho Ojo Romey O! [Verse 2] Rolling on the ground, people dancing 'round Then they lift me up, spin me like a top Well they cut off the goat head in the mud Lord! Meh belly boil! And then they makе me drink up the goat blood Mixed with olivе oil, singing: [Chorus] Ojo Romey O! You should see me dance the Shango Ah could feel the rhythm roll Deep down in meh soul Ho-sign Jahwayla Ah beat the drum to bar Lucifer Alar garda fee-leh fu-osho Ojo Romey O! [Verse 3] When the spirit catch you, nothing you could do Except dance like hell, try to break the spell Well everybody tell me I was great They say I'm a boss Under the spirit ah was dancing ah jarjar And riding ah horse and singing: [Chorus] Ojo Romey O! You should see me dance the Shango Ah could feel the rhythm roll Deep down in meh soul Ho-sign Jahwayla Ah beat the drum to bar Lucifer Alar garda fee-leh fu-osho Ojo Romey O! [Verse 4] Ever since that day I can't keep away I must be on spot every feast they got Now I am a proper Shango Man That does beat the drum So if you want to join the Shango band Follow me and come, come on [Chorus] Ojo Romey O! Come see the Sparrow dance the Shango Feel the rhythm roll Deep down in your soul Ho-sign Jahwayla Ah beat the drum to bar Lucifer Alar garda fee-leh fu-osho Ojo Romey O! Shango! Shango!
