Everybody get on down
I feel pata pa
'Tis the latest thing in town
I feel pata pa
Hear the sound and feel the beat
I feel pata pa
Time to move and shake your feet
I feel pata pa
Chorus 2x
Ariama, ariama
I feel pata pa
Hear me Mama
I feel pata pa
Hear me now
I feel pata pa
Hit the floor and start to move
I feel pata pa
Let the rhythm be the groove
I feel pata pa
Clap your hands and sing along
I feel pata pa
Such a happy, happy song
I feel pata pa
It won't be long to find your love
I feel pata pa
It must be me, you're thinking of
I feel pata pa
Pata Pata is the game
I feel pata pa
So get on down, just stake your claim
Repeat Chorus
Pata Pata is a game
Done in Africa
As soon as the music starts
Everyone begins to move
Friday, Saturday
Pata Pata goes on all night
Until the morning sun begins to shine
I feel pata pa
Jump along to find your love
I feel pata pa
Get on down, get on down
I feel pata pa (till fade)
