[Verse 1]
The day is open
The night is closing it's doors
And somewhere in the jungle
A lion stretches out and roars
[Verse 2]
On a dirty street, in a tenement house
A man unwraps himself from a dingy dingy sheet
And he opens his eyes and hates the bright sunrise
[Verse 3]
Somewhere in the jungle
A man cuts his way through the people and the bush
And the civilized cement
Whoa, yes he does
[Verse 4]
Don't ask me where I am a going
But, after I'm gonе
Glad lady, dear lady, won't you tell 'em
Tеll 'em your boy just went
[Verse 5]
Take off, lock up the door tonight
Keep the sunshine in
While somewhere in the jungle
I listen to the wild go again
[Verse 6]
I'm gonna go down south
And ask the boss man for a clean cut sack
Ah yes so I can pick the little white ball
And bring 'em
Bring 'em all right back
[Outro]
Somewhere in the cement jungle
