Lyrics

I crashed into the jungle while trying to keep a date With my little girl who was-a 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? And meanwhile, back in the States Chorus: Baby, baby, let's make romance You know, your old-time lover hasn't got a chance He's stranded in the jungle, as mad as he can be So, come on pretty baby, just you and me An' meanwhile, back in the jungle The boys in the jungle had me on the run When somethin' heavy hit me like an atomic bomb When I woke up and my head started to clear I had a strange feeling I was with cooking gear I smelled something cooking and I looked to see That's when I found out they was-a cooking me! Great goo-ga-moo-ga! Lemme outta here! An' 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, as mad as he can be So come on pretty baby, just you and me An' meanwhile, back in the jungle I jumped out the pot and I finally got away Frantic and worried about what my baby would say So I jumped in the ocean and started to swim But my chance of survival was getting mighty slim So I thumbed down a whale who was headin' my way And I reached the States in about half a day And when I got to Lover's Lane I was almost dead But my soul was gone and here's what I said Chorus: Baby, baby, the man is no good Oh baby baby, you should have understood You can trust me as long as you please So come back pretty baby where you used to be 'Cause I love you FADES 'Cause I love you 'Cause I love you ~
