Honey come and go with thee
Back to the west Indie
Baby can't you see, I'm loosing me pep, I need energy
What I need is
Drink the coconut water,

I cannot get in America
(What is the tonic, man ?)
Drink the coconut water, (bee gelly) [gelée royale]
Drink the coconut water, (yes it is a builder)

Like a monkey climbin' up the coconut tree
What I need is

Drink the coconut water,
Drink the coconut water

Drink the coconut water,

Drink the coconut water
I cannot get in America
