(Alley-[C]-Oop, oop, oop, oop-oop)
(Alley-Oop, oop, oop, oop-oop)
There's a man in the funny papers we all know
(Alley-Oop, oop, oop, oop-oop)
He lives 'way back a long time ago
(Alley-Oop, oop, oop, oop-oop)
Yeah, he don't eat nothin' but a bear cat stew
(Alley-Oop, oop, oop, oop-oop)
Well, this cat's name is-a-Alley-Oop
(Alley-Oop, oop, oop, oop-oop)
(Alley-Oop) He's the toughest man there is a-[C7]-live
(Alley-Oop) [F] Wears clothes from a wildcat's hide
(Alley-Oop) [D] He's the king of the jungle jive
[G] Look at that [F#] cave man [G] go! (Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!)
(Alley-[C]-Oop, oop, oop, oop-oop)
Hes got a chauffeur that's a genuine-a dinosaur
(Alley-Oop, oop, oop, oop-oop)
And he can knuckle your head before you count to four
(Alley-Oop, oop, oop, oop-oop)
Hes got a big ugly club and a head full-a hair
(Alley-Oop, oop, oop, oop-oop)
Like a great big lion and a grizzly bear-a
(Alley-Oop, oop, oop, oop-oop)
Well, he's the toughest man there is a-[C7]-live
(Alley-Oop) [F] Wearin' clothes from a wildcat's hide
(Alley-Oop) [D] He's the king of the jungle jive
[G] Look at that [F#] cave man [G] go! (Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!)
(Alley-[C]-Oop, oop, oop, oop-oop)
Well, he rides thru the jungle tearin' limbs off-a trees
(Alley-Oop, oop, oop, oop-oop)
A-knockin' great big monsters dead on their knees-ah-huh-huh-huh
(Alley-Oop, oop, oop, oop-oop)
Yeah, the cats don't bug him cause they know better
(Alley-Oop, oop, oop, oop-oop)
Uhmm, a-he's a mean motor scooter and a bad go-getter
(Alley-Oop, oop, oop, oop-oop)
Yeah, a-he's the toughest man there is a-[C7]-live
(Alley-Oop) [F] Wearin clothes from a wildcat's hide
(Alley-Oop) [D] He's the king of the jungle jive
[G] Look at that [F#] cave man [G] go! (Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!)
(Alley-[C]-Oop, oop, oop, oop-oop)
(Alley-Oop, oop, oop, oop-oop)
There he goes-ah-huh
(Alley-Oop, oop, oop, oop-oop)
Ride daddy ride
(Alley-Oop, oop, oop, oop-oop)
Hi-ho- dinosaur
(Alley-Oop, oop, oop, oop-oop)
