Zachary Richard - Down In Congo Square paroles de (lyrics)

In the deep of the night
With the beat of the drum
Watch out, baby, now here she comes
Dancing Colinda just like I said
Silver on her ankles and silk on her head

I want to meet you tonight, down there
We gonna shake it down in Congo Square

Just how it got started don't nobody know
It was maybe Dr ya-Ya, maybe John Creaux
Play the Bamboula with the open hand
Swinging to the rhythm from the mother land
I want to meet you tonight, down there
We gonna shake it down in Congo Square

Anything you want it, you can find it there
Mojo for money, gris-gris for love
Down in Congo Square

In the middle of the summer ont
He eve of Saint John
Full moon is shining, they'll be carrying on
Come from down the river and miles around
To see them jump up on the dancing ground

I want to meet you tonight, down there
We gonna shake it down in Congo Square
