Want you to pick up my scarf
See how the black moon fades
Soon I can give you my heart
I don't know no shame
I feel no pain
I can't see the flame
But I do know Mandinka
I do know Mandinka
I do know Mandinka
I do
They're throwing it all this way
Dragging it back to the start
And they say, "see how the glass is raised?"
I have refused to take part
I told them "drink something new"
Please let me pull something through
I don't know no shame
I feel no pain
I can't...
I don't know no shame
I feel no pain
I can't see the flame
But I do know Mandinka
I do know Mandinka
I do know Mandinka
I do
I do
I do
I said I do
Soon I can give you my heart
I swear I do
Soon I can give you my heart
I do
Mandinka
Soon I can give you my heart
Soon I can give you my heart
Soon I can give you my heart
I'm dancing the seven veils Want you to pick up my scarf See how the black moon fades Soon I can give you my heart I don't know no shame I feel no pain I can't see the flame But I do know Mandinka I do know Mandinka I do know Mandinka I do They're throwing it all this way Dragging it back to the start And they say, "see how the glass is raised?" I have refused to take part I told them "drink something new" Please let me pull something through I don't know no shame I feel no pain I can't... I don't know no shame I feel no pain I can't see the flame But I do know Mandinka I do know Mandinka I do know Mandinka I do I do I do I said I do Soon I can give you my heart I swear I do Soon I can give you my heart I do Mandinka Soon I can give you my heart Soon I can give you my heart Soon I can give you my heart Explain Request ×
