Lyrics
- Hear that wedding tune
Come on and spoon close by my side
Soon the jungle moon will shine
Upon a happy bride
Monkeys tall and monkeys small with funny face
Will cut up with funny monkey shines
Get aboard with me we’ll go and see the Jubilee
Chorus
All aboard for monkey Town
Honey moon is shining down
When the king presents his crown
To the blushing bride
Every monkey and Baboon
Will be singing mighty soon
When they hear those bells go ding-a-ling
There’ll be a hot time in Monkey Town
- Close the bungalow
Away we’ll go to monkey town
Kiss your monkey Miss
Let her put on her swellest gown
Monkeys grand will lead the band around the trees
Followed by the monkey bride and groom
Every monkey proud
Will join the crowd and holler loud
