Mandinka Lyrics - Lion & The Cobra - Sinead Oconnor

I'm dancing the seven veils 

Want you to pick up my scarf 

See how the black moon fades 

Soon I can give you my heart 

I don't know no shame 

I feel no pain 

I can't see the flame 

But I do know Man-din-ka 

I do know Man-din-ka 

I do know Man-din-ka 

I do 

They're throwing it all this way 

Dragging it back to the start 

And they say, "See how the glass is raised?" 

I have refused to take part 

I told them "drink something new" 

Please let me pull something through 

I don't know no shame 

I feel no pain 

I can't 

I don't know no shame 

I feel no pain 

I can't see the flame 

But I do know Man-din-ka 

I do know Man-din-ka 

I do know Man-din-ka 

I do 

I do 

I do 

I say I do 

Soon I can give you my heart 

I swear I do 

Soon I can give you my heart 

I do 

Mandinka 

Soon I can give you my heart 

Soon I can give you my heart
