Ubangi - Kenny Clarke

Got my motor runnin'

Little girl, are you comin'

Keep your candle burning bright

Soon as you are ready

Hold that ladder steady

Come tread softly through the night

Don’t leave me in the dark

Like a ghost rider in your yard

Carving names in bark along the boulevard

I’d be a bushwhacker

Even be your hijacker

Keep your candle burning bright

When we cross that railroad track

There’ll be no turning back

Come tread softly through the night

Don’t leave me sitting here

Up on top of your fence

I’m like an alley cat up here, without a lick of sense

Volcano--I'm about to blow

Volcano--Gonna overflow

Volcano--Look out below

Don’t leave me empty-handed

Like a villain in the woods

Prowling around the grounds, trying to make off with the goods

Volcano--I'm about to blow

Volcano--Gonna overflow

Volcano--Look out below
