《The Jungle King》歌词

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

[00:00:13] 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] But I found out

[00:00:25] You ain't a doggone thing

[00:00:27] Said the monkey to the lion

[00:00:29] On the bright summer day

[00:00:31] There's a big bad cat

[00:00:32] Living down the way

[00:00:35] He talked about your folks

[00:00:36] In a heck of a way

[00:00:38] And a lot of other things

[00:00:40] I'm afraid to say

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

[00:00:45] Like a Harlem cat

[00:00:47] That's blown down his gauge

[00:00:49] He meets the elephant

[00:00:51] Up under a tree

[00:00:52] And he said big boy

[00:00:54] Even you or me

[00:00:56] The elephant looks him over

[00:00:58] From the corner of his eyes

[00:01:00] You better find someone

[00:01:01] To fight that's more your size

[00:01:04] The lion jumps up

[00:01:05] And makes a fancy pass

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

[00:01:09] In the grass

[00:01:11] They fought all day

[00:01:13] They fought all night

[00:01:15] I don't know what happened

[00:01:16] Well things got tight

[00:01:18] The lion came back

[00:01:19] More dead than alive

[00:01:22] And that's when the monkey

[00:01:23] Really started his jive

[00:01:25] 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] But I found out

[00:01:38] You ain't a doggone thing

[00:01:54] Well he waked up his temper

[00:01:56] When he jumping up and down

[00:01:58] And his foot missed the limb

[00:02:00] And his head hit the ground

[00:02:02] Like a bolt of lightening

[00:02:03] 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

[00:02:11] From the corner of his eye

[00:02:13] Says now Mr Lion I apologize

[00:02:17] The monkey's on his back

[00:02:18] Studies up a scheme

[00:02:21] He's trying to get

[00:02:22] Really back jungle king

[00:02:24] You bare with me

[00:02:26] And I wish you would

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

[00:02:32] The lion jumps up

[00:02:33] And squares off for a fight

[00:02:35] But the monkey jumped

[00:02:36] 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] But I found out

[00:02:59] You ain't a doggone thing
