Saguquka sathi bheka (nants' ipata pata)
Saguquka sathi bheka (nants' ipata pata)
Saguquka sathi bheka (nants' ipata pata)
Saguquka sathi bheka (nants' ipata pata)
Yiyo mama, yiyo mama (nants' ipata pata)
Yiyo mama, yiyo mama (nants' ipata pata)
Ha, yiyo mama, yiyo mama (nants' ipata pata)
Yiyo mama, yiyo mama (nants' ipata pata)

Ah, saguquka sathi bheka (nants' ipata pata)
Ah, saguquka sathi bheka (nants' ipata pata)
Ah, saguquka sathi bheka (nants' ipata pata)
Pata pata is the name of a dance (nants' ipata pata)
We do down Johannesburg way (nants' ipata pata)
And everybody starts to move (nants' ipata pata)
As soon as pata pata starts to play (nants' ipata pata) wuh
Ah, saguquka sathi bheka (nants' ipata pata)

Ha, yiyo mama, yiyo mama (nants' ipata pata)
Yiyo mama, yiyo mama (nants' ipata pata)
Hayi ke, saguquka sathi bheka (nants' ipata pata)
Ah, saguquka sathi bheka (nants' ipata pata)
Ah, saguquka sathi bheka (nants' ipata pata)
Saguquka sathi bheka (nants' ipata pata)
Uh, every Friday and Saturday nights (nants' ipata pata)
It's Pata Pata time (nants' ipata pata)
The dance keeps going all night long (nants' ipata pata)
'Til the morning sun begins to shine (nants' ipata pata) hey
Ah, saguquka sathi iyo (iyo ipata pata)
Ah, saguquka sathi bheka nants'ipa- (iyo ipata pata)
Ah, saguquka sathi nants' ipata- (iyo ipata pata)
Ah, saguquka sathi bheka nants' ipata- (iyo ipata pata)
Yiyo mama, yiyo mama (nants' ipata pata)
Yiyo mama, yiyo mama (nants' ipata pata)
Yiyo mama, yiyo mama (nants' ipata pata)
Ah, yiyo mama, yiyo mama (nants' ipata pata)

Oh, saguquka sathi nants' ipa-, hit it (iyo ipata pata)
Oh, nants' ipata pata (iyo ipata pata)
Oh, saguquka sathi nants' ipa- (nants' ipata pata)
Oh, don't touch, yiyo mama yiyo
