Coconut Tree Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Everybody's got a place they go
When the old battery gets running low
I'm a sucker for the sand and sea, yea
If I had my way, hey I'd always be

[Chorus 1]
Way up high in a coconut tree
Laying low, just my baby and me
Sunny sky as far as I can see
High up in a coconut tree

[Verse 2]
Not too green, not too brown
I shimmy up and I shake the good ones down
Coconuts, a couple of bucks a piece
And you can do alright if you are not afraid to be

[Chorus 2]
High in a coconut tree
Laying low, just my baby and me
Sunny sky as far as I can see
High in a coconut tree

[Verse 3]
Yeah, there's less stress and the world's alright
It's a different point of view
When you're looking at life
[Chorus 1]
Way up high in a coconut tree
Laying low, just my baby and me
Sunny sky as far as I can see
High up in a coconut tree

[Chorus 2]
High in a coconut tree
Laying low, just my baby and me
Sunny sky as far as I can see
High in a coconut tree

High in a coconut tree
Laying low, just my baby and me
Sunny sky as far as I can see
High in a coconut tree

[Chorus 1]
Way up high in a coconut tree
Laying low, just my baby and me
Sunny sky as far as I can see
High up in a coconut tree

[Verse 4]
Sunny sky as far as I can see
High up in a coconut tree
Up to here with Willie
Sunny sky as far as I can see
Let's get high in a coconut tree

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
