Lyrics
Chorus:
Down in Borneo, down in Borneo
Down in Borneo Isle
I love to see those wild men dancing around
And those real wild women in swimmin’
Down in Borneo where I want to go
All they wear is a smile
And every evening when the lights are low
Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh!
Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh!
How they toad-al-o to the music slow
Down in Borneo Isle
Chorus:
Down in Borneo, down in Borneo
Down in Borneo Isle
I love to see those wild men dancing around
And those real wild women in swimmin’
Down in Borneo there’s no calico
Shredded wheat is the style
And every evening when the breezes blow
Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh!
Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh!
How they toad-al-o to the music slow
Down in Borneo Isle
Performance
