Now, your grandma's, and my grandma's,
Sittin' by the fire
My grandma told your grandma,
"I'm gonna set your flag on fire."

[Chorus:]
Hey, now (hey now) Hey now, (hey now)
Iko-iko an dey (yeah)
Chakko mo fino, ah-nah-ney
Chakko mo fi-nah-ney

Now, your flag boy and my flag boy
Was sittin' by the fire
My flag boy told your flag boy
"I'm gonna set your flag on fire."

(Hey, hey now)
Now, look at my king,
All dressed in red

He'll kill ya dead
Chakko mo fi-nah-ney

[Chorus]
