Aba Daba Honeymoon chords by Kitty Kallen

Am
Way down in the Congo land lived a happy chimpanzee
C      G7       D     G
She loved a monkey with a long tail lordy how she loved him
Am
Each night he would find her there swingin' in the coconut tree
G7                            D7   G
And the monkey gay at the break of day loved to hear his chimpie say
C
Aba daba daba daba daba daba dab said the chimpie to the monk
                       G7
Aba daba daba daba daba daba dab said the monkey to the chimp
                  C
All night long they'd chatter away all day long they were happy and gay
D7               G7
Swingin' and singin' in their honky tonky way
C

Aba daba daba daba daba daba dab means monk I love but you
E7                 Am
Aba daba dab in monkey talk means chimp I love you too
      F                 C       A7
Then the big baboon one night in June he married them and very soon
   D7       G7    C
They went upon their aba daba honeymoon
