Lyrics:

As I was walking down the beach
On the island of Panguay
I saw a little man with a monkey in his hand
And then I heard him say

How much do you got
For this monkey that I got
Do you got a lot to pay
If you don't got a lot
For this monkey I got
Then I take what you got
For this monkey I got

Hey dumbalaila
Hey dumbalaila
Hey dumbalaila
Dumba dumbalaila
Hey dumbalaila
Hey dumbalaila
Hey dumba dumba dumba lai

Next day I went down to the shore
In a misty tropical rain
To see that little man once more
And hear him say again

Hup hup
How much do you got
For this monkey that I got
Do you got a lot to pay
If you don't got a lot
For this monkey I got
Then I take what you got
For this monkey I got

Hey dumbalaila
Hey dumbalaila
Hey dumbalaila
Dumba dumbalaila
Hey dumbalaila
Hey dumbalaila
Hey dumba dumba dumba lai

That little man he had no cares
And made that all ???
By selling his monkeys to everyone
And saying just one thing

Hup hup
How much do you got
For this monkey that I got
Do you got a lot to pay
If you don't got a lot
For this monkey I got
Then I take what you got
For this monkey I got

Hey dumbalaila
Hey dumbalaila
Hey dumbalaila
Dumba dumbalaila
Hey dumbalaila
Hey dumbalaila
Hey dumba dumba dumba lai
Hey dumbalaila
Hey dumbalaila
Hey dumbalaila...
