Harry Belafonte – Coconut Woman lyrics

(Coconuts, coconuts)
(Coconuts, coconuts)

Coconut woman is calling out
And everyday you can hear her shout
Coconut woman is calling out
And everyday you can hear her shout

Get your coconut water
(Four for five)
Man, it's good for your daughter
(Four for five)
Coco got a lotta iron
(Four for five)
Make you strong like a lion
(Four for five)

A lady tell me the other day
No one can take her sweet man away
I ask her what was the mystery
She say coconut water and rice curry

You can cook it in a pot
(Four for five)
You can serve it very hot
(Four for five)
Coco got a lotta iron
(Four for five)
Make you strong like a lion
(Four for five) Rowwwr

(Coconuts, coconuts)

Coconut woman says you'll agree
Coconut make very nice candy
The thing that's best
If you're feeling glum
Is coconut water with a little rum

It could make you very tipsy
(Four for five)
Make you feel like a gypsy
(Four for five)
Coco got a lotta iron
(Four for five)
Make you strong like a lion
(Four for five)

Ah, play that thing

Coconut woman is calling out
And everyday you can hear her shout
Coconut woman is calling out
And everyday you can hear her shout

Get your coconut water
(Four for five)
Man, it's good for your daughter
(Four for five)
Get your coconut candy
(Four for five)
Make you feel very dandy
(Four for five)

Coco, coco, coco...
Coconut, coconut
Coconut, coconut...
