Oleanna Lyrics - Kingston Trio

Ole, Oleanna 

Ole, Oleanna 

Ole, ole, ole, ole, ole, Oleanna 

Climbing up the Matterhorn, all alone as I could be 

I reached the top, I forced a stop and heard this mystic melody 

Ole, Oleanna 

Ole, Oleanna 

Ole, ole, ole, ole, ole, Oleanna 

On an island in the ocean, not a human soul around 

As I searched for bread and water, once again I heard this sound 

Ole, Oleanna 

Ole, Oleanna 

Ole, ole, ole, ole, ole, Oleanna 

My plane had all its motors gone 

The wings would never keep me up 

I heard a voice that seemed to say 

"Now, let's take it from the top" 

Ole, Oleanna 

Ole, Oleanna 

Ole, ole, ole, ole, ole, Oleanna 

I was tramping through the Congo 

When the Mau Mau tribe appeared 

And their native chant was haunting 

Just the sound that I had feared 

Ole, Oleanna 

Ole, Oleanna 

Ole, ole, ole, ole, ole, Oleanna 

While rocketing into space 

I found myself upon the moon 

An ectoplasm greeting me with 

"Have you heard the latest tune?" 

Ole, Oleanna 

Ole, Oleanna 

Ole, ole, ole, ole, ole, Oleanna 

My ship was sinking in the water 

So I sent an S.O.S and I waited for an answer 

You don't even have to guess 

Came a voice so calm and cheerful 

Just as cheerful as can be, said 

"According to our survey, now the song is number three!" 

Ole, Oleanna 

Ole, Oleanna 

Ole, ole, ole, ole, ole, Oleanna 

Ole, Oleanna 

Ole, Oleanna 

Ole, ole, ole, ole, ole, Oleanna
