#1.
C
I was walking through the jungle just the other night.
When I heard a big rumble and I thought it was a fight.
G7
I lost all volition and began to move my feet.
C
It was a jungle drummer doing a knock down beat.
CHORUS:
C
It was a jungle, jungle, jungle, jungle, rock.
Jungle, jungle, jungle, jungle, rock.
F
Jungle, jungle, jungle, jungle, rock.
C
Jungle, jungle, jungle, jungle, rock.
G7
A knock down beat and I had to move my feet.
C
It was a jungle, jungle, jungle, jungle, rock.
(INTERLUDE:)

And the big black drums was making me hop.

A knock down beat and I had to move my feet.
