Bim Bam Boo

doo-wop, novelty rock & roll, rhythm and blues (R&B)

CUSTOM

[Bridge – only vibraphone and upright bass]
Well the monkey wore sneakers and a polka-dot tie
And the rooster kept winkin’ at the moonlit sky
Everybody hollered when the soda pop flew
Singin’ wobble-dee-wobble-dee-bim-bam-boo

[Break – drums stop completely]
(Hey hey!)
(Whatcha say?)
(Bim bam boo!)
(Ding dang doo!)
[Verse 3]
Well skinny Lou played checkers with a goat named Sue beside the old tattoo parlor sign
Eating pickle pie and drinking dandelion wine
He slipped on soap by the five-and-dime while the band played drums on a parking line
And the whole town shouted “that crazy fool!” when the goat jumped splash in the swimming pool

[Chorus 3] [music suddenly rises into a brighter higher key]
A-bim-bam-boo
Everybody clap now toodle-oo
A-ding-a-dab-a-dee-doo
When the walrus goes tip-tap hoppity-hoo through the old bayou
And the singers go wobble-dee-wobble-dee-doo-loo
Shooby-doo
[Fade Out]
A bim bam boo
A bim bam boo
Ding dang diddly-doo
Bim bam boo
