Best seen with Abadaba Honeymoon Words and Music by Arthur Fields and Walter Donovan 1914 "Aba, daba, daba, daba, daba, daba, dab," Said the Chimpie to the Monk, "Aba, daba, daba, daba, daba, daba, dab," Said the Monkey to the Chimp. All night long they'd chatter away, All day long there were happy and gay, Swinging and singing in their honky-tonkey way. "Aba, daba, daba, daba, daba, daba, dab," Means "Monk, I love but you." "Aba, daba, dab," in monkey talk Means "Chimp, I love you, too." Then the big baboon one night in June, He married them and very soon, They went upon their aba, daba honeymoon.
