Stranded in the Jungle Lyrics

I crashed in the jungle while trying to keep my date
With my little girl, who was back in the States
I was stranded in the jungle, afraid and 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 by my girl in lover's lane?

Meanwhile, back in the States

Baby, baby, let's make romance
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 somethin' heavy hit me, like an atomic bomb
When I woke up, my head started to clear
And I had a strange feeling I was with cooking gear
I smelled something cooking and I look to see
That's when I found out they was cooking me!

Meanwhile, back in the States

Baby, baby, let's make romance
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 the pot, and I finally got away
Frantic with worry, wonderin' 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 a half a day
When I got to lover's lane, I was almost dead
But my soul was gone, and here's what I said

Baby, baby, that man is no good
Oh, baby, baby, you should have understood
You can trust me as long as I'm free
So, come back, pretty baby, where you used to be

'Cause I love you
'Cause I love you
'Cause I love you
'Cause I love you
