CHORUS:
Chooka chooka hoo la ley
Looka looka koo la ley.
A hundred animals were gathered 'round in the night
Mmmhmmm, Mmmhmmm
And they were singing out a lovely song under the pale moonlight
Mmmhmmm, Mmmhmmm
I stood and stared for quite a while
Then a lion sang to me and smiled:
"Come join us if you so desire."
REPEAT CHORUS
I said now please explain the meaning of this song you sing
Mmmhmmm, Mmmhmmm
"Wondrous is our great blue ship
That sails around the might sun
And joy to everyone that rides along!"
REPEAT CHORUS
AND THEY DANCED!!!
Pretty soon I knew the tune and
We sat and sang under the moon
And the jungle rang in joyful harmony.
REPEAT CHORUS
REPEAT CHORUS
"Wondrous is our great blue ship
That sails around the might sun
And joy to everyone that rides along!"
