Papa Charlie Jackson Jungle Man Blues
Ain't nothing in the jungle : that's any better than me
I'm the baddest man : ever came from Tennessee
I slept with a panther : until just about the break of
day
I grabbed the wildcat in the collar : and asked the tiger
what he had to say
I wear a scorpion for my watch fob : a rattlesnake for my
chain
I scares a gorilla : and make him change his big ugly
name
I make a *sea tick* catch a freight train : I make a flea
grab the mail
I make a jumbo elephant : grab an airplane and sail
I was traveling in a rowboat : drifting out in the sea
I made a sea lion cub come back : and shake glad hands
with me
Way down in the forest : there's where I long to be
Because ain't nothing in the jungle : that's any better
than me
