According to the wiki, the story is:
Iko Iko is a very new song from Orleans about the clash between two Indian tribes of Mardi Gras. The lyrics are derived from Indian slogans and slogans. The song was written in 1953 by James Sugarboy Crawford of New Orleans under the original AMO, but it has spread so far that, as far as we know, it is widely regarded as a very old folk song.
The story tells the story of a boy's spy or spy dog, who is a scout of one group of Indians to find another group's standard bearer or standard bearer. Threat of flag hoisting.
The lyrics have been the subject of much speculation, although there is no conclusive evidence to support American or Native American language claims. Although the lyrics to the song are thought to be based on Louisiana Creole French, an authentic translation of the song has never been provided. The Ori songs begin with the Mardi Gras Indians of New Orleans, the source of the spoken word and the theme of a song written in 1953 by James Sugarboy Crawford called Master. Crawford compiled Indian Mardi Gras lines for the song. Crawford himself claimed that he had no idea what the words meant and that he sang Cckamo verbally, but Lloyd, president of Chess & Checkers Records, misunderstood and mistakenly wrote them down. Made the release master.
The JacaMo song was originally recorded by The ie Cups.
