 |
| Kookaburra 1) Kookaburra sits in the old gum tree, Merry, merry king of the bush is he, Laugh, Kookaburra, Laugh, Kookaburra, Happy your life must be.
2) Kookaburra sits in the old gum tree Eating all the gumdrops he can see Stop, Kookaburra, Stop, Kookaburra Leave some there for me.
3) Kookaburra sits in the old gum tree, Counting all the monkeys he can see Stop, Kookaburra, Stop, Kookaburra, That's no monkey, that's me.4) Kookaburra sits on the ol' train track, Along comes a train and knocks him flat, (slower) Poor Kookaburra, Poor Kookaburra, (pause)
That's
the end of that!
(THWACK!)
