Easy Skanking

(album: Kaya - 1978)

Easy skanking (skanking it easy);
Easy skanking (skanking it slow);
Easy skanking (skanking it easy);
Easy skanking (skanking it slow).

Excuse me while I light my spliff; (spliff)
Good God, I gotta take a lift: (lift)
From reality I just can't drift; (drift)
That's why I am staying with this riff. (riff)

Take it easy (easy skankin');
Lord, I take it easy! (easy skankin');
Take it easy (easy skankin');
Got to take it easy (easy skankin').
See: we're taking it easy (ooh-wah-da da-da)
We taking it slow, (ooh-wah-da da-da)
Taking it easy (easy);
Got to take it slow (slow-slow)
So take it easy (easy skanking da-da-da-da-da-da)
Wo-oh, take it easy (easy skankin')
Take it easy (easy skanking da-da-da-da-da-da)
Take it easy. (easy skankin')

Excuse me while I light my spliff; (spliff)
Oh, God, I gotta take a lift: (lift)
From reality I just can't drift; (drift)
That's why I am staying with this riff. (riff)

Take it easy (taking it easy);
Got to take it easy (taking it slow);
Take it easy (taking it easy);
Skanky, take it easy (taking it slow).

Tell you what:
herb for my wine; (ooh-wa-da-da-da)
Honey for my strong drink; (ooh-wa-da-da-da)
Herb for my wine; (ooh-wa-da-da-da)
Honey for my strong drink.

I shake it easy (taking it easy);
Skanky, take it easy (skanking it slow);
Take it (taking it easy) easy;
Take it (skanking it slow) easy;
Take it easy (taking it easy);
Oh-oh-ooh! (skanking it slow);
Little bit easier (taking it easy);
Skanky, take it easy (skanking it slow).
Take it easy! Take it easy! Take it easy! [fadeout]
