This song popped into my head a couple days ago and I couldn't remember it all, but what I recall from the first verses was:

A cannibal king with a big nose ring
Fell in love with a pretty little maid,
And every night in the pale moon light,
It sounded like this to me:
Arum (kiss, kiss sound), arum (kiss, kiss)
Arumpidy'i-dee-ay (repeat)

The years went by,one,two,three,
And soon they had a family.
And every night in the pale moon light,
It sounded like this to me:
Arum-ma ma, arun pa pa
Arumpi-Dee-I-Dee-ay. (Repeat)

I probably hadn't heard that since 7th grade! I really enjoyed readingthe varied lyrics.
Now I will have to see if anyone remembers, "In the Boarding House Where I Lived!)

I learned it as rCLA warrior KingrCY ..... fell in love with a Zulu maid/maidenrCY and every night under the pale moonlight you could hear them serenade, arumprCYrCY kissing soundrCY repeat
Arump till the something .. of day.
Learned it while a Brownie in Jamaica in the 70rCOs. Also learned the Zulu Warrior song, A Zaca Zumba. Many other campfire songs that I still do remember. My factor is the bear song about a little boy who has an encounter with a rCL great
Big bearrCY a way up there. In the mountains.
Good luck
