English[edit]

DK:
Kongo Bongo Island, we stand brave and true
We'll fight for her honor and Inka Dinka Doo
From on top of the White Mountains, your glory rises high
To the sky!

From vine to vine is so divine
When your swingin' on a Kongo Bongo line
Our ocean view is powder-blue
There's so much to inspire you

CANDY:
Can't you feel the heat
Risin' up through your feet?

DK, DIDDY, CANDY, & CRANKY:
On the island
The island of Kongo Bongo
Everybody
Come on, dance and sing along now

DK:
A tropic breeze, your mind at ease
Sittin' under tall banana trees
Coconuts galore and so much more
You'll be dancin' on the shore

CANDY:
There's no need to think twice
It's an isle of paradise

DK, DIXIE, FUNKY, & BLUSTER:
On the island
The island of Kongo Bongo
Everybody
Come on, dance and sing along now
Island
The island of Kongo Bongo
Everybody
Come on, dance and sing along now
