Here are the clever lyrics...enjoy!

Somewhere off the coast of Java fell a little piece of lava,

That grew up to be the island known as Bali

Bali la, Bali la, Bali la, Bali la

Every native girl sorta, like the farmer’s daughter outa

And for dancing they are simply off their trolley

Trolley la, trolley la, trolley, trolley, trolley la.

[huttonproject]

But they hadn’t seen a new step since Methuselah did the two-step,

On their isolated island they were way off – beat

From jive they were closeted, till the storm deposited, on their beach a Jiving Jack from lower Basin St.

He went up and got a-looking and he said “Hey, hey, what’s cooking?”

This here joint is jumping, but with melancholy,

Coli la, coli la, coli coli coli la.

So he took their native movements, added “in the groove” improvements,

Now they’re really on the trolley down in Bali

[huttonproject]

They made him king of the whole darn thing, and gave him for his queen the Balinese equivalent of Olivia de Havillant (de Havilland!) Pataka boing boing, yakputaka zoo floo Pataka boing boing, yakputaka ree pee Pataka boing boing, ya pataka siff riff A-haka choo choo, Chattanoogi Bali Booogie Awaka soing soing, ak-awaka slickly Awaka soing soing, ak-awaka hep step Awaka soing soing, ak-awaka live jive Ahaka choo choo, Chattanoogi Bali Booogie
