Every day, down by the water, a girl leaves her bamboo hut
Climbing up a ladder to a palm tree for a coconut
Oh coconut
Oh coconut
So, I went a little bit closer, looking up the tree
And I asked if she would be willing to pick one for me
Oh coconut
Oh coconut
Well, she said that I was a bad boy
And don't give me bother
And that she was only allowed to
Pick for her father
Oh coconut
Oh coconut
But next day, I was a lot wiser, I went up the tree
And after she had climbed up the ladder
I kicked it down you see
Oh coconut
Oh coconut
Oh coconut
Oh coconut
