He bought it for a dime
His nephew had anudder one
He paid it for a lime (true)
He put de lime in de coconut, he drank 'em both up
He put de lime in de coconut, he drank 'em both up
He put de lime in de coconut, he drank 'em both up
He put de lime in the coconut, he call de doctor,
Woke him up.
He said,"DOCTOR! Ain't there nothin' I can take?"

I said "DOCTOR! To relieve this flipper ache."
I said "DOCTOR! Ain't there nothin' I can take?"

I said now let me get this straight
You put de lime in de coconut
You drank 'em both up
You put the lime in the coconut
You drank 'em both up
You put the lime in the coconut
You drank 'em both up.
