Lyrics:

Hey!
Now, nothing ever last forever, no
One minute you're here and the next you're gone
So I respect you, wanna take it slow
I need a mental receipt to know this moment I owe
Do you mind if I steal a kiss, tho? (Chop, chop)
A little souvenir, can I steal it from you?
To memorize the way you shock me
The way you move it here (hey)
Just wanna feel it from you (hey)
Don't be afraid to catch feels
Ride drop top and chase thrills (hey)
I know you ain't afraid to pop pills (hey)
Baby, I know you ain't scared to catch feels
Feels with me

From Wikipedia:
"Iko Iko" is a much-covered New Orleans song that tells of a parade collision between two tribes of Mardi Gras Indians and the traditional confrontation. The song, under the original title "Jock-A-Mo", was written and released in 1953 as a single by James "Sugar Boy" Crawford and his Cane Cutters but it failed to make the charts. The song first became popular in 1965 by girl group the Dixie Cups, who scored an international hit with "Iko Iko".

The most successful charting version in the UK was recorded by Scottish singer Natasha England who took her 1982 version into the top 10. "Iko Iko" became an international hit again twice more, the first being the Belle Stars in June 1982 and again with Captain Jack in 2001.

Lyrics:

Talkin' hey now (hey now), hey now (hey now)
Iko, iko a nae
Jock-a-mo fee-no ai na-ney
Jock-a-mo fee na-ey (boom)

My favorite version is the Belle Stars' one, which was used as the opening song of the Oscar-Winning movie Rain Man.
