The Jungle King - Cab Calloway

You call yourself the jungle king

You call yourself the jungle king

You call yourself the jungle king

I found out you ain't a doggone thing

Said the monkey to the lion on a bright summer day

Say man there's a big bad cat living down the way

You know he talks about your folks in a heck of a way

And he says a whole lotta things that I'm sorta afraid to say

Well the lion jumps salty all full of rage

Like a Harlem cat that's left in his cage

He meets the elephant up under a great big tree

And he says look here now big boy it's either you or me

They fought all night and they fought all day

Man I really don't know how but the lion he got away

He came back to the jungle more dead than alive

And that's when the monkey started to signify

You call yourself the jungle king

You call yourself the jungle king

You call yourself the jungle king

I found out you ain't a doggone thing

You call yourself the jungle king

You call yourself the jungle king

You call yourself the jungle king

I found out you ain't a doggone thing

Well he worked up his temper when he was jumping up and down

And his foot missed a limb and his head hit the ground

Like a bolt o lightning in a stricken heap

The lion was on the poor monkey with all four feet

The monkey looks up from the corner of his eyes

And he says now Mr lion I apologize

The monkey on his back he's slick he studies up a scheme

He's trying to trick the old jungle king

He said now bear with me Mr lion like a good lion should

Please don't tear me up and throw me all over the woods

Well the lion jumps up and he squares off to fight

Oh but the monkey fooled him he was completely outta sight

You call yourself the jungle king

You call yourself the jungle king

You call yourself the jungle king

I found out you ain't a doggone thing
