Bone Man

Sung to the tune of “Alley Oop”

Chorus: Alley oop-oop, oop, oop-oop

There’s a man in Alaska that we all know
Dah-dee dip-dip, dip, strike-dip
And he studies dudes that lived a long time ago
Dah-dee dip-dip, dip, strike-dip
Theropods and hadrosaurs are his kinda buds
Dah-dee dip-dip, dip, strike-dip
Cause he digs on their bones in the polar muds
Dah-dee dip-dip, dip, strike-dip
All the Fairbanks egg-heads just call him prof
Dah-dee dip-dip, dip, strike-dip
This cat’s name is Roland Gangloff
Gang-a-loff-loff, loff, Gangloff
Gang-a-loff-loff, loff, Gangloff

He’s the baddest bone hunter that there is alive
Gang-a-loff
He roams Alaska both far and wide
Gang-a-loff
He’s the king of the dino jive
Look at that bone man go…

Well he rides up the Haul Road makin’ gravel fly
Dah-dee dip-dip, dip, strike-dip
Bad bears and caribou just step aside
Dah-dee dip-dip, dip, strike-dip
The mountains stay quiet, they don’t give him no lip
Dah-dee dip-dip, dip, strike-dip
Else he tromps up their sides takin’ strike and dip
Dah-dee dip-dip, dip, strike-dip

Dah-dee dip-dip, dip, strike-dip
Dah-dee dip-dip, dip, strike-dip

Ride bone man, ride
Ride yo’ Hadrosaaauur
Look at him go
He sho’ is hip, ain’t he
Ride daddy, ride
Follow dat bearing
He don’t need no Brunton
