Coconut Lyrics

Bruder bought a coconut, he bought it for a dime,
His sister had anudder one
she paid it for de lime.

She put de lime in de coconut, she drank 'em
bot' up
She put de lime in de coconut, she drank 'em bot' up.
She put de
lime in de coconut, she drank 'em bot' up
She put de lime in de coconut, she
call de doctor, woke 'im up,

Said "doctor, ain't there nothin' I can
take?"
I said "Doctor, to relieve this belly ache,"
I said "Doctor, ain't
there nothin' I can take?"
I said "Doctor, to relieve this belly
ache."
Now lemme get this straight,

You put de lime in de coconut,
you drank 'em bot' up,
You put de lime in de coconut, you drank 'em bot'
up,
You put de lime in de coconut, you drank 'em bot'up,
You put de lime
in de coconut, you call your doctor, woke 'im up,

Said " Doctor, ain't
there nothing' I can take?"
I said, "Doctor, to relieve this belly
ache."
I said "Doctor, ain't there nothin' I can take?'
I said, "Doctor,
to relieve this belly ache,"

You put de lime in de coconut, you drink
'em bot' togedder
Put de lime in de coconut and you'll feel better,
Put

Put de lime in de coconut and call

Woo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo.
Oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo.

Put the lime in the coconut,

Put the lime in the coconut, drink 'em both

Put the lime in your coconut, and call me in the

I'll tell you what to do if you call me in the morning.
I'll
tell you what to do and if you call me in the morning
I'll tell you what to
do.
