Ab-a dab-a dab-a dab-a dab-a dab-a dab
Said the chimpie to the monk
Bab-a dab-a dab-a dab-a dab-a dab-a 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
Ab-a dab-a dab-a dab-a dab-a dab-a dab
Means monk I love but you
Bab-a dab-a 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 ab-a dab-a honey moon
Ab-a dab-a dab-a dab-a dab-a dab-a dab
Said the chimpie to the monk
Bab-a dab-a dab-a dab-a dab-a dab-a 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
Ab-a dab-a dab-a dab-a dab-a dab-a dab
Means monk I love but you
Bab-a dab-a 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 ab-a dab-a honey moon
