Kookaburra sits in the old gum tree
Merry, merry king of the bush is he
Laugh, kookaburra, laugh
Gay your life must be

Eating all the gum drops he can see
Stop, kookaburra, stop

Counting all the monkeys he can see
Wait, kookaburra, stop

I know a pretty bird that’s brown and white,
It wakes me in the morning and sings to me at night.
Such a big laugh I love to hear,
Makes me grin from ear to ear.
What’s so funny, Kookaburra?
What’s so funny, to you?
Fast and strong he’s an aerial dancer, and
when he calls, another will answer.
Something special about his funny song,
Cause hearing it makes me happy all day long.
I love you Kookaburra
I love you through and through
And that’s true.
What’s so funny, Kookaburra?
What’s so funny, to you?
