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

[@Inigo_Montoya94]

That one note will always bring so much memories to so many people..

[@louis-nz8ce]

[@eliasjimenez218]

[@flashtrends2555]

[@TacRet135]

A true masterpiece of musical talent

[@misterbush5151]

[@Bike_Lion]

Thanks for posting the lyrics. It sounds like he's saying "hit me when I come."

[@seditionaudio]

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

[@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

[@andrealepun693]

La escuché en la radio hoy 🥺 como pude estar 10 años sin conocer esta canción.

[@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.

[@Bike_Lion]

@@AnonymousArgMXG - Pues, si más gente hoy en día sea "comunista," creo que eso es la culpa de nuestro sistema actual de neoliberalismo. Si no encuentran una alternativa mejor...

[@camilleboyer4617]

Je me disais, si Manu savait que grâce à lui, ce soir je suis mieux dans ma solitude.❤

[@2Juniperanians]

The summer vibes, 2024 anyone???

Isso é a prova de que não podemos desistir nunca, 10 anos depois viralizou

This song fire

[@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 !!!!

[@bradystrachan4788]

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

[@loitsche-f7g]

Vives Manu Chao>>>>>

[@VendettTM]

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

[@papacarl2002]

Most excellent dude! I’ve had similar experiences with other songs, but I got reacquainted with Bongo Bong a few years ago watching a band called The Big Push playing it live on a rooftop - look for “The Big Push - Bongo Bong (Manu Chao Cover) - 🍷 🎸 🤘🏼🎧🤟🏼

I actually found this through The Big Push’s cover. And then I ran to hear what this was. Absolutely phenomenal as well!

[@Sqwim]

my dad used to play this song when i was a kid and I just rediscovered it 15 years later. What a feeling

[@ElMilito89]

Almost 20 years.... and still loving this song..

[@user-kb9bp3sv3p]

Esta canción es simplemente una obra maestra, y aunque pasen los años y se haga cada vez menos escuchada, yo nunca abandonaré estas letras. Representan mucho para mí, me recuerdan a mi juventud y todas las aventuras que se vivían en aquella época. Gracias Manu por volvernos a visitar. Saludos desde Concepción, Chile.

[@cormoran1971]

Descubrí esta canción en París, cuando iba a hacer un curso de instructores de Aikido Yoshinkan. Me ha marcado para siempre. Los tonos, los acordes, el ritmo... es perfecto. Te llega al alma.
