kingston trio - oleanna lyrics
h. geller/m. seligson
chorus:
ole, oleanna. ole, oleanna. ole, ole, ole, ole, ole, oleanna.
climbing up the matterh-rn, all alone as i could be, i reached the top, i forced a stop and heard this mystic melody.
(chorus)
on an island in the ocean, not a human soul around, as i searched for bread and water, once again i heard this sound.
(chorus)
my plane had all its motors gone. the wings would never keep me up.
i heard a voice that seemed to say, “now, let’s take it from the top.
(chorus)
i was tramping through the congo when the mau mau tribe appeared
and their native chant was haunting, just the sound that i had feared.
(chorus)
while rocketing into sp-ce, i found myself upon the moon. an ectoplasm greeting me with, “have you heard the latest tune?”
(chorus)
my ship was sinking in the water, so i sent an s.o.s. and i waited for an answer, you don’t even have to guess.
came a voice so calm and cheerful, just as cheerful as can be, said, “according to our survey, now the song is number three!”
(chorus twice)
