Verse

POTTER:
Come onyou childrengather around -
Gather aroundyou children.
And we will lose that evil spirit
Called the voodoo.
Nothin but troubleif he has found

If he has found youchildren -
But you can chase the hoodoo
With the dance that you do.
Let me lead the way.
Jubilee today!
He ll never hound you;
Stamp on the groundyou children!
Come on!

Refrain

Clap-a yo hand! Slap-a yo thigh!
Halleluyah! Halleluyah!
Ev rybody come along and join the Jubilee!
Clap-a yo hand! Slap-a yo thigh!
Don t you lose time! Don t you lose time!
Come along-it s shake yo shoes time
Now for you and me!
On the sands of time
You are only a pebble;
Remembertrouble must be treated
Just like a rebel;
Send him to the Debble!
Clap-a yo hand! Slap-a yo thigh!
Halleluyah! Halleluyah!
Everybody come along and join the Jubilee!
