Rockapella is an American a cappella musical group best known for their series of Folgers Coffee commercials and the Where in the World is Carmen Sandiego? theme song. "Rockapella" is a portmanteau of "rock" and "a cappella". In addition to original vocal music, the group also perform a cappella covers of pop songs.
The original group members consisted of Brown University alumni Elliott Kerman, David Stix, Sean Altman, and Steve Keyes, who started performing together sheerly out of their love for music.

For those who don`t know, this is a a-capella song and Rockapella don`t use instruments, only their voices. So I heard the Do-it-a-capella album and tried to get the chords. The mode is exactly the same that Rockapella used. Enjoy it!
Title: Zombie Jamboree Artist: Rockapella *************** Conrad Eugene Mauge, Jr. (3rd verse lyric by Sean Altman) Arrangement: Sean Altman, David Yazbek & Bill Straus Lead Vocal: Sean Altman
Verse: A It was a zombie jamboree EA Took place in the New York cemetery
Oh, it was a zombie jamboree EA Took place in the New York cemetery.
DA Zombies from all parts of the island EA Some of them are great Calypsonians DA Since the season was carnival EA They got together in bacchanal
And they were singing
Chorus
DA Back to back, mon, belly to belly EA I don't give a damn 'cause I'm stone dead already DA Oh, back to back, belly to belly EA It's a zombie jamboree.
Verse:
One female zombie she wouldn't behave See how's she's dancing out of the grave In one hand she's holding a quart of rum The other hand is knocking a conga drum.
You know the lead singer starts to make his rhyme While the other zombie is rockin' in time One bystander, he had this to say: "It was a trip to see the zombies break away." SHAH! And they were singing:
(Repeat chorus twice)
A Back to back! Everyone we sing back to back
And belly to belly then back to back E One two three four Hey
Verse:
What a zombie jamboree From Times Square to the Statue of Liberty Uptown, downtown zombie jamboree Whoa whoa whoa, yeah yeah
There's a high-wire zombie 'tween the World Trades A King Kong zombie on the Empire State But the biggest zombies Tokyo to Rome The zombies who call the city home. (Hah! What they do! Huh!)
