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

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

Cause I love you

Cause I love you
