Lyrics :
Mama was queen of the mambo
Papa was king of the Congo
Deep down in the jungle
I started bangin' my first bongo
Every monkey'd like to be
In my place instead of me
Cause I'm the king of bongo, baby
I'm the king of bongo bong
I went to the big town
Where there is a lot of sound
From the jungle to the city
Looking for a bigger crown
So I play my boogie
For the people of big city
But they don't go crazy
When I'm bangin' in my boogie
I'm the...
"king of the bongo, king of the bongo bong"
Hear me when I come, baby
"king of the bongo, king of the bongo bong"
Nobody'd like to be in my place instead of me
Cause nobody go crazy when I'm bangin' on my boogie
I'm a king without a crown hanging loose in a big town
But I'm the king of bongo baby I'm the king of bongo bong
"King of the bongo, king of the bongo bong"
Hear me when I come baby
"King of the bongo, king of the bongo bong"
Hear me when I come
They say that I'm a clown
Making too much dirty sound
They say there is no place for little monkey in this town
Nobody'd like to be in my place instead of me
Cause nobody go crazy when I'm bangin' on my boogie
I'm the...
"King of the bongo, king of the bongo bong"
Hear me when I come baby
"King of the bongo, king of the bongo bong"
Hear me when I come

I SEARCHED FUCKING EIGHT YEARS FOR THIS SONG AND TODAY I FINALLY FOUND IT!!!! NOW I CAN DIE HAPPY

[@mrshadow70835]

[@EinFreund11]

But i hope you still alive ;)

[@jshamel]

I was at the Cincinnati Zoo and heard this song playing in the gift shop. I didnt leave until someone told me the name of this song! :)

[@JustRememberWhoYoureWorkingFor]

yeah it can be confusing because Manu Chao has at least two other songs that sound like this one, one of them is "homens" and the other I don't remember its name

[@yougot104]

Me too, finally i used shazam with the radio

[@ajfelling]

Yo it’s perfectly telling that so many comments are like “I’m so happy I finally found this” like Manu Chao wrote kinda a timeless song

[@AngelUlloa2024]

Su labor social en Latinoamérica es grandiosa.
Más Manu Chao necesitamos.

[@jonamartinez8553]

No al comunismo, solo artistas haciendo musica

[@agustinagonzalez9174]

​@@jonamartinez8553imbécil, si este mundo capitalista es tan libre como predican deja que el hombre haga lo que quiera, y crea en lo que quiera, al fin y al cabo a hecho más que muchos otros con más dinero

[@AnonymousArgMXG]

​@@jonamartinez8553 Ahora ayudar a la gente es "comunista". Creo que a la juventud le falta empatía y aprender historia.

[@LaurAntonela5607]

2024 y seguimos acá #Manu💜🇦🇷

[@fernandomorenomujica4791]

Escuchaba a Manu en el 97 cuando estaba por trabajo en Puerto Montt, Chile, que recuerdos melancólicos y Felices a la vez, extraño mi juventud, todo el mundo por delante !!!!

[@adoskonig]

I've been looking for this song for good 4 years. For some reason I coupd not find it anywhere at all. I checked every radio history playlist I could find, I looked at every playlist of famous songs I could find, yet no luck.
Untill I went to my friends birthday party and absolutelly randomly one of his friends decided to ocnnect their playlist to main speakers and played this song, finally bringimg me to peace. Yes. I truly thought I will never hear this again. I can die in peace now

[@seditionaudio]

My wife worked with some Colombian girls that introduced her to Manu Chao's music. Absolutely love this.

[@ellencogo8705]

Mama was queen of the mambo
Papa was king of the Congo
Deep down in a jungle
I started banging my first bongo
Every monkey like to be
In my place instead of me
'Cause I'm the king of Bongo, baby
I'm the king of Bongo Bong
I went to the big town
Where there is a lot of sound
From the jungle to the city
Looking for a bigger crown
So I play my Boogie
For the people of big city
But they don't go crazy
When I'm banging all my boogie
I'm the
Hear me when I come, baby
(King of the Bongo)
(King of the Bongo Bong)
Nobody likes to be
In my place instead of me
'Cause nobody go crazy
When I'm banging on my boogie
I'm a king without a crown
Hanging loose in a big town
But I'm the king of Bongo, baby
I'm the king of Bongo Bong
Hear me when I come, baby
(King of the Bongo)
(King of the Bongo Bong)
Hear me when I come
They said that I'm a clown
Making too much dirty sound

For little monkey in this town
Nobody liked to be
In my place instead of me
'Cause nobody go crazy
When I'm banging on my boogie
I'm the
Hear me when I come, baby
(King of the Bongo)
(King of the Bongo Bong)
Hear me when I come
Banging on my bongo
All that swing belongs to me
I'm so happy there's nobody
In my place instead of me
I'm a king without a crown
Hanging loose in a big town
I'm the king of Bongo, baby
I'm the king of Bongo Bong
King of the Bongo bong)
Hear me when I come, baby
(King of the Bongo)
(King of the Bongo Bong)
Hear me when I come
Mama was queen of the mambo
Papa was king of the Congo
Deep down in a jungle
I started banging my first bongo
Every monkey like to be
In my place instead of me

I’m kinda shocked by the comments about people looking for years and years for this song. The lyrics repeat the song multiple times…and if you search king of the bongo….its not that hard. Glad they found it, though. Love this album
