《The Jungle》歌词

[00:00:00] The Jungle (丛林) - Count Basie (贝西·伯爵)

[00:00:14] You call yourself the jungle king

[00:00:17] You call yourself the jungle king

[00:00:20] You call yourself the jungle king

[00:00:24] I found out you ain't a doggone thing

[00:00:27] Said the monkey to the lion on the bright summer day

[00:00:31] There's a big bad cat living down the way

[00:00:35] He talked about your folks in a heck of a way

[00:00:38] A lot of other things i'm afraid to say

[00:00:42] The lion jumps up all full of rage

[00:00:45] Like a harlem cat that's blown his gauge

[00:00:49] He meets the elephant in the front of the tree

[00:00:53] He says now big boy it's you or me

[00:00:57] The elephant looks him from the corner of his eyes

[00:01:00] You better find someone to fight your size

[00:01:04] The lion jumps up and makes a fancy pass

[00:01:07] But the elephant knocks him over in the grass

[00:01:11] They fought all night and they fought all day

[00:01:15] I don't know how the lion well he got away

[00:01:17] He come back through the jungle more dead than alive

[00:01:22] And that's when the monkey really started his jive

[00:01:26] You call yourself the jungle king

[00:01:29] You call yourself the jungle king

[00:01:33] You call yourself the jungle king

[00:01:36] I found out you ain't a doggone thing

[00:01:54] Well he waked up his temper when he jumping up and down

[00:01:58] And his foot missed the limb and his head hit the ground

[00:02:02] Like a bolt of lightening and a streak of heat

[00:02:06] The lion was on him with all four feet

[00:02:09] But the monkey looks up from the corner of his eye

[00:02:13] Says now mr lion i apologize

[00:02:17] The monkey on his back studies up a scheme

[00:02:21] He's trying to trick that jungle king

[00:02:24] Be bad with me i wish you would

[00:02:28] I'd tear you up all over the wood

[00:02:32] The lion jumps up squares off for a fight

[00:02:35] But the monkey jumped completely out of sight

[00:02:39] So if you bother me again

[00:02:43] I'll turn you over to my elephant friend

[00:02:47] You call yourself the jungle king

[00:02:50] You call yourself the jungle king

[00:02:54] You call yourself the jungle king

[00:02:58] I found out you ain't a doggone thing
