Mano Negra - King Of Bongo

Moma was queen of the mambo
Popa was king of the Congo
Deap down in the jungle
I started bangin' my first bongo
Every monkey'd like to be
In my place instead of me
Cause I'm the king of bongo
The king of bongo bong

King of bongo, king of the bongo bongo bong

I went to the big town
Where there's a lot of sound
From the jungle to the city
Lookin' for a bigger crown
So I played my Bongo
For the people of big city
But they don't go crazy
When I'm bangin' my boogie

King of bongo, king of the bongo bongo bong 'Cause people like disco
People like house
That's why they don't applause
When I'm bangin' on my bongo
They say what I'm a clown
Makin' too much dirty sound
They say there is no crown
For little monkey in this town

King of bongo, king of the bongo bongo bong

Nobody'd like to be
In my place instead of me
Cause nobody go crazy
When I'm bangin' on my boogie
But I don't like no disco
I don't like the house
Cause I'm born to rock
I'm born to pogo

King of bongo, king of the bongo bongo bong

When I'm bangin' on my bongo
All that swing belongs to me
I'm so happy there's nobody
In my place instead of me
I'm a king without a crown
Hangin' loose in the big town
I'm born to rock
I'm born to pogo
