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." 

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, now (hey now) Hey now, (hey now) 

Iko-iko an dey (yeah) 

Chakko mo fino, ah-nah-ney 

Chakko mo fi-nah-ney 

(Hey, hey now) 

Now, look at my king, 

All dressed in red 

Iko-Iko an-dey 

I betcha' five dollars, 

He'll kill ya dead 

Chakko mo fi-nah-ney 

Hey, now (hey now) Hey now, (hey now) 

Iko-iko an dey (hey) 

Chakko mo fino, ah-nah-ney 

Chakko mo fi-nah-ney 

IKO! (descending into general hilarity)
