Batoma Lyrics - Welcome To Mali - Amadou & Mariam

Batoma, your child is crying 

Come take him 

We sing. 

We dance. 

We shake. 

We get a move on. 

Me, I don't give a damn! 

Batoma, your baby cries, Batoma 

Batoma, everyone asks you, Batoma 

Batoma, everyone calls you, Batoma 

Batoma, your baby cries, Batoma 

Me, I don't give a damn.

If the child is crying, 

Give him your milk. 

If the namesake of my father is crying, 

Give him your milk. 

If the namesake of my mother is crying, 

Give her your milk. 

If the namesake of my grandfather is crying, 

Give him your milk. 

If the namesake of my father-in-law is crying, 

Give him your milk. 

If the namesake of Baguayogo is crying, 

Give him your milk. 

We sing. 

We dance. 

We shake. 

We get a move on. 

Me, I don't give a damn! 

And if the namesake of the grandfather is crying? 

Let him cry until he's blue in the face. 

Me, I don't give a damn. 

And if the namesake of the grandmother is crying? 

Let her cry until she's blue in the face? 

Me, I don't give a damn. 

And if the namesake of the nasty father-in-law is crying? 

Let him cry until he's blue in the face. 

Me, I don't give a damn. 

And if the namesake of the nasty brother-in-law is crying? 

Let him cry until he's blue in the face. 

Me, I don't give a damn. 

And if the namesake of the nasty wife of the polygamist is crying. 

Let her cry until she's blue in the face. 

Me, I don't give a damn. 

Batoma, your child is crying. 

Come take him. 

We sing. 

We dance. 

We shake. 

We get a move on. 

Me, I don't give a damn! 

If the children are crying 

Carry them on your backs 

If the children are crying 

Keep them quiet 

If the children are crying 

Take care of them 

Tjou! Tjou! Tjou! 

Give him your milk 

Tjou! Tjou! Tjou! 

Carry him on your back...
