Words/Music: Rosalie Sorrells
Performed by Paul Kantner and Grace Slick




E                                  B#m     B 
There's an island way out in the sea
E                                  B#m     B 
Where the babies they all grow on trees
  F#m
And its jolly good fun
  E 
To swing in the sun
B                                                            E           B#m 
But you gotta watch out if you sneeze-sneeze
 B                                          E 
You gotta watch out if you sneeze


 E                                            B#m        B 
Yeah you gotta watch out if you sneeze
 E                                                B#m     B 
For swingin' up there in the breeze
 F#m 
You're liable to cough
  E 
You might very well fall off
  B                                     E       B#m 
And tumble down flop on your knees-knees
  B                                        E 
Tumble down flop on your knees


 E                                            B#m        B 
And when the stormy winds wail
 E                                                      B#m     B 
And the breezes blow high in a gale
         F#m                                                  E                           
There's a furious dropping and flopping and plopping
 B                                             E   B#m 
And fat little babies just hail-hail
 B                                          E 
fat little babies just hail


 E                                                   B#m     B 
And the babies lie there in a pile
 E                                                         B#m     B 
And the adults they come after awhile
   F#m                                  
And they always pass by
    E 
All the babies that cry
    B                                               E           B#m 
And take only babies that smile-smile
 B                                                     E 
They take only babies that smile...
 B                                                              E 
Even triplets and twins if they'll smile
