Jungle Man
As we arrived to the theater that night
There were curtains drawn
And the crowd were nearly busting outta their seats
In that full auditorium
Set the scene on the stage was a fine hour
Seated in softest chairs
And in the green spotlight there was a velvet smoke
I could not help but stare
Is he a man, is he a mystery
A mystery to me?
Is he singing that jungle blues tonight
Is he singing in that jungle beat?
He told us a story in his mumblin' voice
Put him outta breath
And he gave the word he was goin' to tell it
His band just up and left
And he told the joke, we understood it
Well the song began
And his orchestra cane runnin' back
To back up this here jungle man
Is he a man, is he a mystery
A mystery to me?
Is he singing that jungle blues tonight
Is he singing in that jungle beat?
My man my mystery man
My man my mystery man
My man my mystery man
Is he a man, is he a mystery
A mystery to me?
Is he singing that jungle blues tonight
Is he singing in that jungle beat?
There were curtains drawn
And the crowd were nearly busting outta their seats
In that full auditorium
Set the scene on the stage was a fine hour
Seated in softest chairs
And in the green spotlight there was a velvet smoke
I could not help but stare
Is he a man, is he a mystery
A mystery to me?
Is he singing that jungle blues tonight
Is he singing in that jungle beat?
He told us a story in his mumblin' voice
Put him outta breath
And he gave the word he was goin' to tell it
His band just up and left
And he told the joke, we understood it
Well the song began
And his orchestra cane runnin' back
To back up this here jungle man
Is he a man, is he a mystery
A mystery to me?
Is he singing that jungle blues tonight
Is he singing in that jungle beat?
My man my mystery man
My man my mystery man
My man my mystery man
Is he a man, is he a mystery
A mystery to me?
Is he singing that jungle blues tonight
Is he singing in that jungle beat?
