Ging Gang Goolie or Ging Gang Gooli is a gibberish scouting song, written by Robert Baden-Powell during the 1st World Scout Jamboree. It is popular among the Boy Scouts and Girl Guides.
Split into two groups. Sing through once as a whole group then split for the round. One group sings oompa, oompa, while the chorus is sung and then the groups change sides. At the end, both groups join in singing Shalli-walli, Shalli-walli, Shalli-walli, Shalli-walli.
