[Chorus]
DOle, oleanna
GOle, oleDanna
EmOle, ole, Dole, ole
AOle, oleDanna
[Verse]
DClimbing up the Matterhorn
GAll alone as DI could be
I Emreached the top, I Dforced a stop
I Aheard this mystic Dmelody
[Chorus]
DOle, oleanna
GOle, oleDanna
EmOle, ole, Dole, ole
AOle, oleDanna
[Verse]
DOn an island in the ocean
GNot a human Dsoul around
EmAs I searched for Dbread and water
AOnce again I Dheard this sound
[Chorus]
DOle, oleanna
GOle, oleDanna
EmOle, ole, Dole, ole
AOle, oleDanna
[Verse]
DMy plane had all its motors gone
The Gwings would never Dkeep me up
I Emheard a voice that Dseemed to say
"ANow, let's take it Dfrom the top"
[Chorus]
DOle, oleanna
GOle, oleDanna
EmOle, ole, Dole, ole
AOle, oleDanna
[Verse]
DI was tramping through the Congo
GWhen the Mau Mau Dtribe appeared
EmAnd their native Dchant was haunting
AJust the sound that DI had feared
[Chorus]
DOle, oleanna
GOle, oleDanna
EmOle, ole, Dole, ole
AOle, oleDanna
[Verse]
DWhile rocketing one day in space
I Gfound myself uDpon the moon
An Emectoplasm Dgreeted me with
"AHave you heard the Dlatest tune?"
[Chorus]
DOle, oleanna
GOle, oleDanna
EmOle, ole, Dole, ole
AOle, oleDanna
[Verse]
DMy ship was sinking in the water
GSo I sent an DS.O.S.
EmAnd I waited Dfor an answer
AYou don't even Dhave to guess
[Verse]
DCame a voice so calm and cheerful
GJust as cheerful Das can be
EmSaid, "According Dto our survey
ANow the song is Dnumber three"
[Chorus]
DOle, oleanna
GOle, oleDanna
EmOle, ole, Dole, ole
AOle, oleDanna
[Chorus]
DOle, oleanna
GOle, oleDanna
EmOle, ole, Dole, ole
AOle, oleDanna
EmOle, ole, Dole, ole
AOle, oleDanna
