Текст песни woyaya

Woyaya: Written by Ghanaian drummer Sol Amarifio, is the title song of a 1971 album by Oisibisa, a musical group of Ghanaian and Caribbean musicians. It was frequently heard in work camps throughout central West Africa in the 1970s and 1980s. The arrangement in Singing the Journey comes from the version by Ysaye Barnwell (of Sweet Honey in the Rock). "woyaya" doesn’t have a real meaning, it’s just like saying “oh, yeah” as an affirmation without literal translation. This song is frequently used in UU rites of passage ceremonies.
