Coco-Yam Song Songtext
A neighboring clan went on the attack
Stole all the giant coco-yams
From the barn out back
I will make them pay
For taking my yams away
I carved out little figurines of thieves
Burned a palmful of red dust from the medicine bag
Broke a kola nut in half, I ate half of it myself
I sat back and watched the evening drag
I will make them regret
That they haven′t brought my yams back yet
Stole all the giant coco-yams
From the barn out back
I will make them pay
For taking my yams away
I carved out little figurines of thieves
Burned a palmful of red dust from the medicine bag
Broke a kola nut in half, I ate half of it myself
I sat back and watched the evening drag
I will make them regret
That they haven′t brought my yams back yet
