Lyrics
Iko by Scott Detweiler
Iko Iko
Iko Iko An de
Shokamo fe no na nan de
I said shokamo fe na ne
I met my Manila Mama
From the town of Jolo
I said “I’m from the bayou”
Then I made the sister mine, o”
Talkin bout hey na, hey na
Iko iko an de
Shokomo fe no na nan de
I said shokamo fe nan ne
Married in the chapel
Everybody we know
Dancin singin all night long
At the big fais do do
Talkin bout hey na, hey na
Iko iko an de
Shokomo fe no na nan de
I said shokamo fe nan ne
Our love brought a lil baby
Looked just like her an me oh
Fed the child jambalaya
Ginatan and Biko
Talkin bout hey na, hey na
Iko iko an de
Shokomo fe no na nan de
I said shokamo fe nan ne
