Hey Lollee – This is the classic campfire song for which you make up verses as you go.
Hey Lollee, lollee,
Hey Lollee, lollee, lo.
Hey Lollee, lollee,
Hey Lollee, lollee, lo.
This is a crazy kind of song,
Hey Lollee, lollee, lo.
You make it up as you go along,
Hey Lollee, lollee, lo.
When calypso singers sing this song,
Hey Lollee, lollee, lo.
It sometimes lasts the whole day long,
Hey Lollee, lollee, lo.
First you invent a simple rhyme,
Hey Lollee, lollee, lo.
Then another one to rhyme,
Hey Lollee, lollee, lo.
While you catch on I’ll sing a verse,
Hey Lollee, lollee, lo.
Then you do one that’s even worse,
Hey Lollee, lollee, lo.
I know a boy named Sammy–C, (or use another name that rhymes)
Hey Lollee, lollee, lo.
He sings "Hey Lollee" in just one key,
Hey Lollee, lollee, lo.
Tonight we’ve chosen another key,
Hey Lollee, lollee, lo.
You won’t be hearing from Sammy–C,
Hey Lollee, lollee, lo.
He sings "Hey Lollee" day and night,
Hey Lollee, lollee, lo.
It never seems to come out right,
Hey Lollee, lollee, lo.
I know a man name Mr. Jones,
Hey Lollee, lollee, lo.
When he sings, everybody groans,
Hey Lollee, lollee, lo.
The singer you fast the getter it’s tuff,
Hey Lollee, lollee, lo.
To line up makes that you won’t muff,
Hey Lollee, lollee, lo.
Let’s put this song back on the shelf,
Hey Lollee, lollee, lo.
If you want anymore you can sing it yourself,
Hey Lollee, lollee, lo.
