The Coconut Counting Man
4
Harry Bellafonte: Down Grand Bahama 'neath the stand-up palm
5
On an island called Green Turtle Key,
6
People sit and stare at the man who's there
7
Counting coconuts night and day.
8
You'll find him dressed in a cape in the island sun,
9
Got no time to rest 'til his counting's done
10
Never gets depressed 'cause he's having fun,
11
He's the Coconut Counting Man
12
Tell everybody now
13
Count: I'm the Coconut Counting Man
14
HB: Everybody
15
Birds: He's the Coconut Counting Man
16
HB: Watch him count now
17
Count: One, two, three...oh oh yeah, four five six seven, I love it, wonderful coconuts!
18
HB: A-ha, Wonderful!
19
When the tropical breeze blows the nuts from the trees
20
Everybody spies while he's counting
21
Oh they glow and smile 'cause his coconut pile
22
Is growing big as a mountain
23
Sure as stars are bright, and water's deep
24
He'd rather count all night than go to bed and sleep
25
He counts coconuts instead of sheep
26
He's the Coconut Counting Man
27
Tell the people
28
Count: I'm the Coconut Counting Man
29
HB: Everybody now
30
Birds: He's the Coconut Counting Man
31
HB: Watch him count
32
Count: 16, 17, 18, 19, yes, 20, ha ha! I love these coconuts!
33
HB: Big numbers! Uh-huh. Wonderful!
34
I never got his name, don't know from where he came
35
But there's one thing that is true
36
No coconut amount's too big for him to count
37
You can count on him to count for you
38
Everybody now
39
Count: One and two, three four five,
40
It's wonderful to be alive!
41
Yes, I'm so proud as proud can be that I've
42
Been the Coconut Counting Man
43
HB: Everybody now
44
Birds: He's the Coconut Counting Man
45
He's the Coconut Counting Man
46
He's the Coconut Counting Man
47
HB: Let's hear it, Count
48
Count: Yes, oh, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30 Coconuts ha ha ha!
49
HB: Ah, that's a lot of coconuts!
50
Count: Yes
51
HB: Yes sir, I think the island's sinking!
52
Count: Ah, we need to find a bigger island anyway.
53
HB: Yes, but I've got you, so what else matters?
54
Count: Ha ha ha! Let's eat.
55
HB: Oh, thank you, Count, I love you so much.
