Stranded in the Jungle

Lyrics

I crashed in the jungle while trying to keep a date
 With my little girl who was back in the States
 I was stranded in the jungle, afraid, alone
 Trying to figure a way to get a message back home
 But how was I to know that the wreckage of my plane
 Had been picked up and spotted and my girl in Lover's Lane
 Meanwhile, back in the States
 Baby, baby, let's make romance
 You know your old-time lover hasn't got a chance
 He's stranded in the jungle, sad as he can be
 So come on pretty baby, just you and me
 Meanwhile, back in the jungle
 The boys in the jungle had me on the run
 When something heavy hit me like an atomic bomb
 When I woke up and my head started to clear
 I had a strange feeling I was cooking gear
 I smelled something cooking and I looked to see
 That's when I found out they was cookin' me
 Ooga booga, lemme outta here!
 Meanwhile, back in the States
 Baby, baby, let's make romance
 You know your old-time lover hasn't got a chance
 He's stranded in the jungle sad as he can be
 So come on pretty baby just you and me
 Meanwhile, back in the jungle
 I jumped out of the pot, I finally got away
 I was frantic, worried about what my baby would say
 So I jumped in the ocean and started to swim
 My chance of surviving was gettin' slim
 So I thumbed down a whale that was headed my way
 And I reached the States in about half a day
 When I got to Lover's Lane I was almost dead
 Heard him talkin' to my baby, and this is what he said
 Baby, baby, the man's no good
 Baby, baby, should have understood
 You can trust me just as long as you please
 So come back pretty baby where you used to be
 Cause I love you (I love you, I love you, you're fine baby)
 Cause I love you (So damn fine)
 Cause I love you (I got a job; I have money too)
 Cause I love you (Did I show you my vehicle)
 Cause I love you (I'll take you for a ride)
 Cause I love you
