Ah yes, the Witch doctor. I just had to go and find all the words. There did seem to be a liking for novelty songs around that period. I've left it all spread out the way it was, because they've put guitar chords all through it:
WITCH DOCTOR E - A - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
1. I told the witch doctor, I was in love with you.
E - A - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
I told the witch doctor, I was in love with you,
A - E - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - A
And then the witch doctor, he told me what to do; he said that:
A D A E
Ooh ee, ooh ah-ah, ting-tang, walla-walla bing-bang.
A D E A
Ooh ee, ooh ah-ah, ting-tang, walla-walla bing-bang. (2x)
E - A
2. I told the witch doctor you didn't love me true.
E - A
I told the witch doctor you didn't love me nice.
A - E A
And then the witch doctor, he gave me this advice; he said that:
A D A E
Ooh ee, ooh ah-ah, ting-tang, walla-walla bing-bang.
A D E A
Ooh ee, ooh ah-ah, ting-tang, walla-walla bing-bang. (2x)
D A
You've been keeping love from me just like you were a miser,
D A
And I'll admit I wasn't very smart.
D A
So I went out and found myself a guy that's so much wiser,
B7 E
And he taught me the way to win your heart.
E - A
3. My friend the witch doctor, he taught me what to say.
E - A
My friend the witch doctor, he taught me what to do.
A - E A
I know that you'll be mine when I say this to you:
A D A E
Ooh ee, ooh ah-ah, ting-tang, walla-walla bing-bang.
A D E A
Ooh ee, ooh ah-ah, ting-tang, walla-walla bing-bang. (2x)
D A
You've been keeping love from me just like you were a miser,
D A
And I'll admit I wasn't very smart.
D A
So I went out and found myself a guy that's so much wiser,
B7 E
And he taught me the way to win your heart.
E - A
3. My friend the witch doctor, he taught me what to say.
E - A
My friend the witch doctor, he taught me what to do.
A - E A
I know that you'll be mine when I say this to you; oh, baby--
A D A E
Ooh ee, ooh ah-ah, ting-tang, walla-walla bing-bang.
A D E A
Ooh ee, ooh ah-ah, ting-tang, walla-walla bing-bang. (4x) ….
