Boom Diddy Gorilla Lyrics
Boom diddy, boom diddy, boom, boom, boom.
Boom diddy, boom diddy, boom, boom, boom.
Down in the jungle where nobody goes.
There's a great big gorilla,
washing his clothes.
With a rub-a-dub here
and a rub-a-dub there.
That's the way he's washing his
underwear!
Boom diddy, boom diddy, boom, boom, boom.
Boom diddy, boom diddy, boom, boom, boom.
