Skokiaan lyrics

Skokiaan

Oooooh, far away in Africa
Happy, happy Africa
They sing a-bing-a-bang-a-bingo
They have a ball and really go
Skokiaan, Skokiaan, Skokiaan

Oooooh, Take a trip to Africa
Take any ship to Africa
Come on along and learn the lingo
Beside a jungle bungalow
Skokiaan, Skokiaan, Skokiaan

Hot drums are drumming, the
Hot strings are strumming, and
Warm lips are blissful, they're
Kissful of Skokiaan

Oooooh, when you go to Africa
Happy, happy, Africa
You live along like a king-o
Right in the jungle bungalo

Hokey-Skoki, Skoki-oki-aan
Okey-Dokey, anybody can
(Skoki-Skoki) man, oh man, oh man
You sing a-bing-a-bang-a-bingo
In hokey-pokey Skokiaan
Skoi-aa-aa-aa--ann

Oh-hoooo, far away in Africa
Happy, happy Africa
They sing a-bing-a-bang-a-bingo
They have a ball and really go, go, go
Oh-hoooo, take a trip to Africa
Any ship to Africa
Come on along and learn the lingo
Beside a jungle bungalow

Hot drums are drumming, the
Hot strings are strumming, and
Warm lips are blissful, they're
Kissful of Skokiaan

Oooooh, if you go to Africa
Happy, happy Africa
You live along like a king-o
Right in a jungle bungalo
Skokiaan, Skokiaan, Skokiaan, Skokiaan
Ooooooooh, right in a jungle bungalo
Skokiaan
