lyrics

Franco Luanbo Makiadi
A this one for you
Mi Ti Lazaro I miss you

Olobaki nini eh eh eh
Olobaki nini Mamou eh eh eh

Olobaki nga na fundaka yo
Na mobali na yo
Olobaki nga na salaka kissefe
Na libala na bino ha

Wadada seh, hear this

Ring a ring a ring
Afro Rumba Thing
Pumping ina the place
Franco Luambo a King
Ring a ring a ring
Afro Rumba Thing
Pumping ina the place
Franco Luambo a King

Mi vien te parle the man and his guitar
When him a play, yes the man a star
TPOK Jazz a go take you far
Kongo, kongo, Kongo super star

Ring a ring a ring
Afro Rumba Thing
Pumping ina the place
Franco Luambo a King

Olobaki nini eh eh eh
Olobaki nini Mamou eh eh eh

Ngay moto nako teleka yo, mamou eh
Ngay moko na yebi ba sekele, mamou eh
Lelo na komi muto mabé, mamou eh
O yebi tango indi nga ko, mamou eh
O ko kanguissa ngay mamou na keye
A ta ofimbi ngay ndomba, mamou eh

Hey, hey, hey, hey
You hear the guitar Kongo man a play thing
Parle de bolingo when guitar a ring
Tell the Samangwana him know how to do a sing
Mister Madilo is also a king
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
TPOk Jazz yes you make my day

Ring a ring a ring
Afro Rumba Thing
Pumping ina the place
Franco Luambo a King
Ring a ring a ring
Afro Rumba Thing
Buyaka buyaka
Toko bina with a King

Olobaki nini eh eh eh
Olobaki nini Mamou eh eh eh

Mi a go, mi a go, mi a go tre te te te te
One step forward, two step backward
Step out, step out, step out of babylon
One step forward, two step backward
Step out, step out, step out of babylon
Remember the one name Makiabi
Can kill the man but never kill the music
Remember the one name Franco
Can kill the man but never kill the music

Ring a ring a ring
Afro Rumba Thing
Pumping ina the place
Franco Luambo a King
