Tied up, tied up
Tied up, tied up
Tied up, tied upGulemo dilemma
Gulemo dilemma
Tie me up, the city heat
Bring the bell, go down the street
Tie me up to the babaumba beat
Try to beat, try to fight
Take me back into the ring tonight
Shake it up, beat down the beat
Shake it up to the babaumba heat
It's the African queen, we got the summer night grand
It's the African queen, the hottest lady in town
It's the African queen, who keeps me on my feet
It's the African queen, the babaumba beatAll you need is love
Take my heart
And hold me tight forever, foreverBombo-yo, ko ko ko bombo ya
Bombo-yo, ko ko ko bombo ya
Bombo-yo, ko ko ko bombo yaRing the bell
Roll down the street
Tie me up into the city heatTake me guys, keep up the beat
Bring the bell into the city heatTied up, tied up
Tied up, tied up
Tied up, tied up
Tied up, tied up
Tied up, tied up
Tied up, tied up
Tied up, tied up
Tied up, tied upGulemo dilemma
Gulemo dilemma
Got away

Tie me up to the babaumba beat
Take the beat, take the fight
Take me back into the ring tonightIt's the African queen, we got the summer night grand
