The Charmer with Johnny McCleverty Calypso Boys – Back to Back, Belly to Belly Lyrics

Artist: The Charmer with Johnny McCleverty Calypso Boys
Song: Back to Back, Belly to Belly

Right now, as a point of information
Something we didn’t know until recently, every year in trinidad they have what is known as a calypsonian carnival
In which the various native groups down there
Vie with one another, uh, musically

In order to find out who is the best extemporaneous composer of them all, yes
And in the year 1955 lord invader and his twelve penetrators
Took the title with this next song
Uh, based on a theme by goethe involving the dance of thе dead

Well, uh, invader could only draw from еxperience so he called it of course, “zombie jamboree”, the song that killed calypso
¿por qué no?
Well, now, back to back, belly to belly
Well, i don’t give a damn ’cause i done dead already

Back to back, belly to belly
At the zombie jamboree (now, he did call us)
Back to back, belly to belly
Well, i don’t give a damn ’cause i done dead already

Back to back, belly to belly
At the zombie jamboree (yes)
Zombie jamboree took place
In a new york cemetery (where?)

Zombie jamboree took place
In long island cemetery
Zombies from all parts of the island (where?)
Some of them are great calypsonian (some)

Since the season was carnival
They got together in bacchanal (what ya’ doin’?)
Back to back, belly to belly
Well, i don’t give a damn ’cause i done dead already

Back to back, belly to belly
At the zombie jamboree (feel that)
Back to back, belly to belly
Well, i don’t give a damn ’cause i done dead already

Back to back, belly to belly
At the zombie jamboree
One female zombie wouldn’t behave
She say she want me for a slave

In the one hand she’s holding a quart of wine (oh)
In the other she’s pointing that she’ll be mine (ho-ho-ho)
Well, believe me folks, i had to run (why?)
A husband of a zombie ain’t no fun (don’t knock it!)

I says, “oh, no, my turtle dove
That old bag of bones i cannot love” (what you doin’?)
Back to back, belly to belly
Well, i don’t give a damn ’cause i done dead already

Back to back, belly to belly
At the zombie jamboree (oh, what a good game)
Back to back, belly to belly
Well, i don’t give a damn ’cause i done dead already

Back to back, belly to belly
At the zombie jamboree
Right then and there she raise her feet
“i’m a-going to catch you now, my sweet

I’m gonna make you call me ‘sweetie pie'” (oh?)
I says, “oh, no, get back, you lie”
“i may be lyin’ but you will see” (what?)
After you kiss this dead zombie” (blaaah!)

Well, i never seen such a horror in my life
Can you imagine me with a zombie wife? (yes!)
Back to back, belly to belly
Well, i don’t give a damn ’cause i done dead already

Back to back, belly to belly
At the zombie jamboree (you’re all alone, you know)
Back to back, belly to belly
Well, i don’t give a damn ’cause i done dead already

Back to back, belly to belly
At the zombie jamboree
Thank you very much
