Freddy Cannon

Okefenokee

Way down south in Okefenokee

The sun goes down

And the air is cool

There's a real neat beat

Traveling over the water

It's making me a dancing fool

Okefenokee, Okefenokee

Choowa, choowa, choowa

Out on the lake

Down in Okefenokee

Riverboat where

The cats all show

Stomping their feet

And clapping in rhythm

It's wilder than a rodeo

Okefenokee, Okefenokee

Choowa, choowa, choowa

On the deck of the boat

Down in Okefenokee

Met a Georgia peach who

Was raring to go

She danced up a storn

With her pom-poms booming

Someone hollered, fire below

Well, the boat

Went down in Okefenokee

Well, the cats and chicks

Went for the door

My baby and I

Stole a kiss on the water

I kissed her all

The way to shore

Okefenokee, Okefenokee

Choowa, choowa, choowa

Come on, Georgia

Let's party, sugar

Yeah, bye bye

So long for now, baby

Come on, Georgia...
