Lyrics

(Hey hey) Indian’s coming
(Hey hey) Nobody running
(Hey hey) Indian’s coming make
Jock a mo fino han do in the morning
Jock a mo fino han do
Early mardi gras morning
Here come a gang from the ridge
Struck without a warning
Talking ‘bout...
(Hey hey) Oona
(Hey hey) Shoot coon a moona
(Hey hey) Oona make
Jock a mo fino han do in the morning
Jock a mo fino han do
Early that morning in mardi gras day
Police blew his whistle
There come a chief from the other way
With a big long shiny pistol
Talking ‘bout...
(Hey hey)
(Hey hey) Blood ship a oona
(Hey hey) Shoot coon a moona make
Jock a mo fino han do in the morning
Jock a mo fino han do
Just my boy rob pork chop
Might that boy live
Meet you that morning, you don’t stop
He gonna make you jump in the river
Talking ‘bout...
(Hey hey) Jump in the river
(Hey hey) Jump in the river
(Hey hey) Make him jump in the river make
Jock a mo fino han do in the morning
Jock a mo fino han do
Big chief standing on the avenue
Spy boy on the corner
Flag keep his signal, we’re meeting again
Big chief said do what you wanna
Talking ‘bout...
(Hey hey) Do what you wanna
(Hey hey) Do what you wanna
(Hey hey) Do what you wanna make
Jock a mo fino han do in the morning
Jock a mo fino han do
It’s all over town on mardi gras day
Now it’s late in the evening
I took them up took em down
Now the whole damn gang is leaving
Talking ‘bout...
(Hey hey) Early in the morning
(Hey hey) Here from the warning
(Hey hey) Soon in the morning make
Jock a mo fino han do in the morning
Jock a mo fino han do
(Hey hey) Blood ship a oona
(Hey hey) Shoot coon a moona
(Hey hey) Blood ship a oona make
Jock a mo fino han do in the morning
Jock a mo fino han do
(Hey hey) Make him jump in the river
(Hey hey) Jump in the river
(Hey hey) Make him jump in the river make
Jock a mo fino han do in the morning
Jock a mo fino han do
Jock a mo fino han do in the morning
Jock a mo fino han do
Jock a mo fino han do in the morning
Jock a mo fino han do
Jock a mo fino han do in the morning
Jock a mo fino han do
Jock a mo fino han do in the morning
Jock a mo fino han do
