Something devilish came from Cape Verde, sly as a fox.
meaningless, and without a chance,
in a time and place where there was no fun.
But then this voodoo played when the needle hit the vinyl.
It's the "Jiggy Needle" - Don't drop it!
Play it again, even better! Keep on playing!
Come what may, do it again,
We'll dance the jig, then we'll settle the bill.
Something dirty and devilish from long ago arrived
from around the Cape of Good Hope. A different kind of Voodoo.
It swung his tail, and spun the records,
like mortal weapons forged from fire.
It's the "Jiggy Needle" - Don't drop it!
Play it again, even better! Keep on playing!
Come what may, do it again,
We'll dance the jig, then we'll settle the bill.
As the world well knows, the devil won't ask
what's most valuable to you: your body or your soul?
Once again, the music started bellowing from below.
As the song plays on, it's hard to leave.
It's the "Jiggy Needle" - Don't drop it!
Play it again, even better! Keep on playing!
Come what may, do it again,
We'll dance the jig, then we'll settle the bill.
It's the "Jiggy-Needle". Dance how you want.
It don't hurt. Let it play on!
This type of dance is only for the brave,
Look how we come back for more.
