CoCo Cabana Band

[Verse 1] Well, they stowed away on a freighter out of the Congo And docked in New Orleans Poked around a bit, but they just didn't fit In that Dixieland jazz scene Made their way over to Biloxi But that just wasn't meant to be But when they knocked on the doors down in Gulf Shores Well, the rest is history Wandered into a juke joint down on the beach While the house band was on a break Snuck up on the bandstand when nobody was looking And the house began to shake, yеah Everybody there had to turn to starе They couldn't believe their ears 'Cause when they heard the sound that was being laid down Well, the whole place broke out in cheers [Chorus] The gorilla played the guitar Baboon played the bass Chimpanzee was a sight to see Playing drums all over the place The monkey sang funky backup Played piano like he had four hands And the orangutan reared back and sang Like an old Alabama blues man So help me, Hannah, they're the cat's pajamas And I ain't just pounding sand Yeah, they're top bananas in South Alabama They're the CoCo Cabana (CoCo Cabana) CoCo Cabana Band [Verse 2] Well, the highbrows and the lowbrows The beach bums and the elite, yeah They all gather 'round when the sun goes down It's hard to find a seat They jam into that beach juke joint Everybody starts to jump and jive 'Cause when the monkey band takes the bandstand The whole place comes alive [Chorus] The gorilla plays the guitar Baboon plays the bass Chimpanzee is a sight to see Playing drums all over the place The monkey sings funky backup Plays piano like he has four hands And the orangutan rears back and sings Like an old Alabama blues man So help me, Hannah, they're the cat's pajamas And I ain't just pounding sand Yeah, they're top bananas in South Alabama They're the CoCo Cabana (CoCo Cabana) CoCo Cabana Band
