Thank you my friend CW5 Jack Cardwell for sharing the classic 1965 Iko Iko performed by
The Dixie Cups from their Chapel Of Love album.
The Dixie Cups were Rosa Lee Hawkins, Barbara Anne Hawkins, Athelgra Neville
This song was written by James Crawford, Rosa Lee Hawkins, Joan Marie Johnson, Barbara Anne Hawkins
"Lyrics:
My grandma and your grandma were
Sit-tin' by the fire. - My grandma told
Your grandma "I'm gonna set your flag on fire."

Talk-in' 'bout, Hey now ! Hey now ! I-KO, I-KO, un-day
Jock-a-mo fee-no ai na-n?. - Jock-a-mo fee na-n?

Look at my king all dressed in red
I-KO, I-KO, un-day. I betcha five dollars he'll kill you dead
Jock-a-mo fee na-n?

Talk-in' 'bout, Hey now ! Hey now ! I-KO, I-KO, un-day
Jock-a-mo fee-no ai na-n?. - Jock-a-mo fee na-n?

My flag boy and your flag boy were
Sit-tin' by the fire. - My flag boy told
Your flag boy "I'm gonna set your flag on fire."

Talk-in' 'bout, Hey now ! Hey now ! I-KO, I-KO, un-day
Jock-a-mo fee-no ai na-n?. - Jock-a-mo fee na-n?

See that guy all dressed in green ?
I-KO, I-KO, un-day. He's not a man
He's a lov-in' machine
Jock-a mo fee na-n?

Talk-in' 'bout, Hey now ! Hey now ! I-KO, I-KO, un-day
Jock-a-mo fee-no ai na-n?. - Jock-a-mo fee na-n?"
