Harry Nilsson › Lyrics › Coconut

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 de lime in de coconut, drink 'em bot' up
Put de lime in de coconut and call me in the morning

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

Brudder bought a coconut, he bought it for a dime
His sister had anudder one she paid it for a lime
She put de lime in de coconut, she drank 'em bot' up
She put de lime in de coconut and called de doctor, woke 'im up

And 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, now lemme get this straight

You put the lime in the coconut, you drink 'em bot'up
Put the lime in the coconut, you drink 'em bot' up
Put the lime in the coconut, you drink 'em bot' up
Put the lime in the coconut, you're such a silly woman

Put a lime in the coconut and drink 'em bot' together
Put the lime in the coconut, then you'll feel better
Put the lime in the coconut, drink 'em both down
Put the lime in your coconut and call me in the morning

Woo, ain't there nothin' you can take?
I say,"Woo, to relieve your belly ache"
You say, "Well, woo, ain't there nothin' I can take?"
I say, "Woo woo, to relieve your belly ache"
You say, "Yow, ain't there nothin' I can take?"
I say, "Wow, to relieve this belly ache"

I said "Doctor, ain't there nothing I can take?"
I said, "Doctor, ain't there nothing I can take?"
I said, "Doctor, ain't there nothing I can take?"
I said, "Doctor you're such a silly woman"

Put the lime in the coconut and drink 'em both together
Put the lime in the coconut and you'll feel better
Put the lime in the coconut and drink 'em bot' up
Put the lime in the coconut and call me in the morning

Yes, you call me in the morning
You call me in the morning, I'll tell you what to do
If you call me in the morning, I'll tell you what to do
If you call me in the morning, I'll tell you what to do
If you call me in the morning, I'll tell you what to do
If you call me in the morning, I'll tell you what to do
