Frog went a-courtin' and he did ride
King kong kitchie kitchie ki me o
With a sword and a pistol by his side
King kong kitchie kitchie ki me o
Chorus:
Ki-mo-kee-mo-ki-mo-kee
Way down yonder in a hollow tree
An owl and a bat and a bumble bee
King kong kitchie kitchie ki me o
He rode 'til he came to miss mouse's door
King kong kitchie kitchie ki-me-o
And there he knelt upon the floor
King kong kitchie kitchie ki-me-o
Chorus:
Ki-mo-kee-mo-ki-mo-kee
Way down yonder in a hollow tree
An owl and a bat and a bumble bee
King kong kitchie kitchie ki me o
He took Miss Mouse upon his knee
King kong kitchie kitchie ki-me-o
And he said, "Little mouse will you marry me?"
King kong kitchie kitchie ki-me-o
Chorus:
Ki-mo-kee-mo-ki-mo-kee
Way down yonder in a hollow tree
An owl and a bat and a bumble bee
King kong kitchie kitchie ki me o
Miss Mouse had suitors three or four
King kong kitchie kitchie ki-me-o
And there they came right in the door
King kong kitchie kitchie ki-me-o
Chorus:
Ki-mo-kee-mo-ki-mo-kee
Way down yonder in a hollow tree
An owl and a bat and a bumble bee
King kong kitchie kitchie ki me o
They grabbed Mister Frog and began to fight

In that hollow tree 'twas a terrible night
King kong kitchie kitchie ki-me-o
Chorus:
Ki-mo-kee-mo-ki-mo-kee
Way down yonder in a hollow tree
An owl and a bat and a bumble bee
King kong kitchie kitchie ki me o

Way down yonder in a hollow tree
An owl and a bat and a bumble bee

And left on their honeymoon right away
King kong kitchie kitchie ki-me-o

An owl and a bat and a bumble bee
King kong kitchie kitchie ki me o
Now they live far off in a hollow tree
King kong kitchie kitchie ki-me-o
Where they now have wealth and children three
King kong kitchie kitchie ki-me-o
