Skokiaan is a cheap home brew African laborers drink. Kind of like African moonshine. No wonder this is a happy song. Really brings back 1954. I made my first train ride then, from L.A. to Dayton Ohio, on the Anacin, Toledo and the Sana Flush. Some one was playing this song on the train and the whole Dome Car was rockin'. Superhartline

You forgot to tell that "The Four Lads" was also the background of Frankie Laine, I think more than with Johnny Ray.
The version of Louis Armstrong (no sing version) is also a very good one.

No problem kiddo. It's common knowledge to anyone familiar with Southern African music. Not just the guys at Wikipedia, lol ... knowledge is way older than Wikipedia kiddo.
