Way down in the Congo land lived a happy chimpanzee She loved a monkey with a long tail lordy how she loved him Each night he would find her there swingin' in the coconut tree And the monkey gay at the break of day loved to hear his chimpie say Aba daba daba daba daba daba dab said the chimpie to the monk Aba daba daba daba daba daba dab said the monkey to the chimp All night long they'd chatter away all day long they were happy and gay Swingin' and singin' in their honky tonky way Aba daba daba daba daba daba dab means monk I love but you Aba daba dab in monkey talk means chimp I love you too Then the big baboon one night in June he married them and very soon They went upon their aba daba honeymoon
