| Aba Daba Daba Way down in the Congoland Lived a happy Chimpanzee. She loved a monkey with a long tail (Lordy,how she loved him!) Each night he would find her there, Swinging 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. "Baba,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, Swinging and singing in their honky-tonky way. "Aba,daba,daba,daba,daba,daba,dab," Means" Monk,I love but you." " Baba,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. "Aba,daba,daba,daba,daba,daba,dab," Said the chimpie to the monk, "Baba,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,Swinging and singing in their honky-tonky way. "Aba,daba,daba,daba,daba,daba,dab," Means,"Monk I love but you." "Baba, daba ,dab," in monkey talk, Means Chimp,I love you too." One night they were made man and wife, And now they cry,"This is the life," Since they came from their aba,daba honeymoon. Well, you should have heard that band Play upon ther wedding day, Each Chimp and Monkey had nutshells (Lordy,how they played them!) And now it is ev'ry night, It's the same old thing, Whith the same old swing, When the Monk and Chimpie sing: "Aba,daba,daba,daba,daba,daba,dab," Said the Chimpie to the Monk, "Baba,daba,daba,daba,daba,daba, dab," Said the Monkey to the Chimp. All night long they would chatter away, All day long they were happy and gay, Swinging and singing in their honky-tonky way. "Aba,daba,daba,daba,daba,daba,dab," Means Monk I love but you."Baba,daba,dab," in Monley talk Means"Chimp,I love you too." Then the big baboon,one night in June, He matrried them adn very soon, They went upon their aba,daba honeymoon. "Aba,daba,daba,daba,daba,daba,dab," Said the Chimpie to the Monk "Baba,daba,daba,daba,daba,daba,dab," Said the monkey to the Chimp.
