Released 1958 [Intro] G7 C [Verse 1]
          C                       F
There's a salmon-colored girl who sets my heart a-whirl

    G7                         C
Who lives along the Yukon far away

                                      F
With the Northern Lights a-shine, she rubs her nose to mine

    G7                               C
She cuddles close and I can hear her say
[Chorus]
 C                           F
"Ooga-ooga-moosh-kuh," which means that I love you

   G7                                              C
If you will be my baby, I'll "ooga-ooga-moosh-kuh" you

                                 F
Then I take her hand in mine and set her on my knee

    G7                                         C
The squaws along the Yukon are good enough for me
[Verse 2]
    C                        F
She makes her underwear from hides of grizzly bear

    G7                            C
And bathes in ice-cold water everyday

                                 F
Her skin, I love to touch, but I just can't touch it much

   G7                                C
Because her fur-lined parka's in the way
[Chorus]
 C                           F
"Ooga-ooga-moosh-kuh," which means that I love you

   G7                                              C
If you will be my baby, I'll "ooga-ooga-moosh-kuh" you

                                 F
Then I take her hand in mine and set her on my knee

    G7                                         C
The squaws along the Yukon are good enough for me
[Guitar Solo] C F G7 C [Chorus]
 C                           F

   G7                                              C
If you will be my baby, I'll "ooga-ooga-moosh-kuh" you

                                 F
Then I take her hand in mine and set her on my knee

    G7                                         C
The squaws along the Yukon are good enough for me

C                F    C
Carry me back to old Alaska

    G7                                         C
The squaws along the Yukon are good enough for me
