King Kong Kitchie Kitchie Ki Me O (originale)

Froggie went a courting and he did ride
King kong kitchie kitchie ki-me-o
With a sword and a pistol by his side
King kong kitchie kitchie ki-me-o
Ki-mo-ke-mo ki-mo-ke
Way down yonder in a hollow tree
An owl and a bat and a bumble bee
King kong kitchie kitchie ki-me-o
He rode till he came to miss Mousie’s door
King kong kitchie kitchie ki-me-o
And there he knelt upon the floor
King kong kitchie kitchie ki-me-o
Ki-mo-ke-mo ki-mo-ke
Way down yonder in a hollow tree
An owl and a bat and a bumble bee
King kong kitchie kitchie ki-me-o
He took miss mouse upon his knee
King kong kitchie kitchie ki-me-o
And he said little mouse will you marry me
King kong kitchie kitchie ki-me-o
Ki-mo-ke-mo ki-mo-ke
Way down yonder in a hollow tree
An owl and a bat and a bumble bee
King kong kitchie kitchie ki-me-o
Miss mouse had suitors three or four
King kong kitchie kitchie ki-me-o
And there they came right in the door
King kong kitchie kitchie ki-me-o
Ki-mo-ke-mo ki-mo-ke
Way down yonder in a hollow tree
An owl and a bat and a bumble bee
King kong kitchie kitchie ki-me-o
Mr. Frog brought the suitors to the floor
King kong kitchie kitchie ki-me-o
With the sword and the pistol he showed all four
King kong kitchie kitchie ki-me-o
Ki-mo-ke-mo ki-mo-ke
Way down yonder in a hollow tree
An owl and a bat and a bumble bee
King kong kitchie kitchie ki-me-o
Now they live far off in a hollow tree
King kong kitchie kitchie ki-me-o
Where they now have wealth and children three
King kong kitchie kitchie ki-me-o
Ki-mo-ke-mo ki-mo-ke
Way down yonder in a hollow tree
An owl and a bat and a bumble bee
King kong kitchie kitchie ki-me-o

Froggie è andato a corteggiarsi e ha cavalcato
King Kong kitchie kitchie ki-me-o
Con una spada e una pistola al fianco
King Kong kitchie kitchie ki-me-o
Ki-mo-ke-mo ki-mo-ke
Laggiù in un albero cavo
Un gufo, un pipistrello e un calabrone
King Kong kitchie kitchie ki-me-o
Ha guidato finché non è venuto a mancare la porta di Mousie
King Kong kitchie kitchie ki-me-o
E lì si inginocchiò sul pavimento
King Kong kitchie kitchie ki-me-o
Ki-mo-ke-mo ki-mo-ke
Laggiù in un albero cavo
Un gufo, un pipistrello e un calabrone
King Kong kitchie kitchie ki-me-o
Ha preso la signorina topo sulle ginocchia
King Kong kitchie kitchie ki-me-o
E ha detto topolino mi vuoi sposare
King Kong kitchie kitchie ki-me-o
Ki-mo-ke-mo ki-mo-ke
Laggiù in un albero cavo
Un gufo, un pipistrello e un calabrone

Miss Topo aveva tre o quattro corteggiatori
King Kong kitchie kitchie ki-me-o
E lì sono entrati proprio nella porta
King Kong kitchie kitchie ki-me-o
Ki-mo-ke-mo ki-mo-ke
Laggiù in un albero cavo
Un gufo, un pipistrello e un calabrone
King Kong kitchie kitchie ki-me-o
Il signor Frog ha portato i corteggiatori a terra
King Kong kitchie kitchie ki-me-o
Con la spada e la pistola ha mostrato tutti e quattro
King Kong kitchie kitchie ki-me-o
Ki-mo-ke-mo ki-mo-ke
Laggiù in un albero cavo
Un gufo, un pipistrello e un calabrone
King Kong kitchie kitchie ki-me-o
Ora vivono lontano in un albero cavo
King Kong kitchie kitchie ki-me-o
Dove ora hanno ricchezza e figli tre
King Kong kitchie kitchie ki-me-o
Ki-mo-ke-mo ki-mo-ke
Laggiù in un albero cavo
Un gufo, un pipistrello e un calabrone
