Lyrics
I went on down to the Audubon Zoo And they all aks'd for you. They all aks'd for you. Why, they even inquired about ya. I went on down to the Audubon Zoo And they all aks'd for you. The monkeys aks'd, the tigers aks'd, And the elephants aks'd me, too.
Well, I went on up to the big ol' sky And they all aks'd for you. They all aks'd for you. Why, they even inquired about ya. I went on up to the big ol' sky And they all aks'd for you. The ducks aks'd, the eagles aks'd, And the buzzards all aks'd me, too.
I went on down to the deep blue sea And they all aks'd for you. They all aks'd for you. Why, they even inquired about ya. I went on down to the deep blue sea And they all aks'd for you. The shark aks'd, the whale ask'd, And the barracuda aks'd me, too.
