Jack Horntip	Origins: I Paula Taska Nonsense Song (Roud 12944) (40)	Origins: OH NICODEMO Nonsense Song (Roud 12944)	13 Jul 14
From page 5 of this untitled Scouting Songbook which has been scanned as a PDF. I would date the songbook early 1990s and definitely of American in origin. GING GANG GOULEE Ging gang goolee, goolee, goolee, goolee watcha, ging gang goo, ging gang goo. Ging gang, goolee, goolee, goolee, goolee watcha, ging gang o, ging gang goo. Hayla, hayla, shayla, hayla shayla hayla ho. Hayla, hayla shayla, hayla shayla hayla ho. Shally wally, shally wally, Oompah, oompah, oompah, oompah oommmmm. Another version from the same page of the same songbook: "INDIAN SONG" QUE QUA MOONIE MOONIE MOONIE MOONIE MOSHNICK HUM QUA QUE, HUM QUA QUO, QUE QU MOONIE MOONIE MOONIE MOONIE MOSHNICK, HUM QUA QUE, HUM QUA QUO. CHORUS OH NICODEMO, OH GALLY SLY AMMA OH NICODEMO, OH GALLY OLY HUM QUA HUM QUA Retrieved from here: http://elkuta.com/Joomla/images/pdf/resources/scout%20songs%20-%20words%20only.pdf Notice that the "Indian Song" matches the title and the first words from the Swedish songbook.
