Mama was queen of the Mambo Papa was king of the Kongo Deep down in the jungle I start banging my first bongo Every monkey'd like to be in my place instead of me Cause I'm the king of Bongo baby I'm the king of Bongo-bong
I went to the big town where there is a lot of sound From the jungle to the city looking for a bigger crowd So I played my boogie for the people of big city But they don't go crazy when I'm banging on my boogie (ref) the King of the bongo, king of the bongo hear me when i come baby King of the bongo king of the bongo hear me when i come
Nobody'd like to be in my place instead of me cause nobody go crazy when i bang it on my boogie I'm a king without a crown and keep loosing the big town But I'm the king of bongo baby I'm the king of bongo-bong
