My grand-ma and your grand-ma were
Sittin' by the fire
My grand-ma told your grand-ma:
" I'm gonna set your flag on fire "
Talkin' 'bout
Hey now ! Hey now !
Iko, iko unday
Jock-a-mo fee-no ai na-né
Jock-a-mo fee na-né
Look at my king all dressed in red
Iko, iko unday
I betcha five dollars he'll kill you dead
Jock-a-mo fee na-né
Talkin' 'bout
Hey now ! Hey now !
Iko, iko unday
Jock-a-mo fee-no ai na-né
Jock-a-mo fee na-né
See that girl all dressed in green
Iko, iko unday
She's not a girl, she's a lovin' machine
Jock-a-mo fee na-né
Mardi gras's coming and it won't belong
Iko, iko unday
'Till everybody's singing my little song
Jock-a-mo fee na-né
Talkin' 'bout
Hey now ! Hey now !
Iko, iko unday
Jock-a-mo fee-no ai na-né
Jock-a-mo fee na-né
Talkin' 'bout
Hey now ! Hey now !
Iko, iko unday
Jock-a-mo fee-no ai na-né
Jock-a-mo fee na-né
