Signifying Monkey - Willie Dixon (威利·迪克森)[00:00:00]

You call yourself the jungle king[00:00:13]

You call yourself the jungle king[00:00:15]

You call yourself the jungle king[00:00:18]

I found out you ain't a doggone thing[00:00:21]

Said the Monkey to the Lion on the bright summer day [00:00:24]

"There's a big bad cat livin' down the way[00:00:27]

He talked about your folks in a heck of a way[00:00:31]

A lot of other things I'm afraid to say"[00:00:33]

The Lion jumps up all full of rage[00:00:37]

Like a Harlem cat that's blown his gauge[00:00:39]

He meets the Elephant in the front of the tree[00:00:43]

He says "Now big boy it's you or me"[00:00:45]

The Elephant looks him from the corner of his eyes[00:00:49]

"You better find someone to fight your size"[00:00:52]

The Lion jumps up and makes a fancy pass[00:00:55]

But the Elephant knocks him over in the grass[00:00:57]

They fought all night and they fought all day[00:01:02]

I don't know how the Lion well he got away[00:01:04]

He come back through the jungle more dead than alive[00:01:08]

And that's when the Monkey really started his jive[00:01:10]

You call yourself the jungle king[00:01:14]

You call yourself the jungle king[00:01:16]

You call yourself the jungle king[00:01:19]

I found out you ain't a doggone thing[00:01:22]

Well he waked up his temper when he jumpin' up and down[00:01:50]

And his foot missed the limb and his head hit the ground[00:01:53]

Like a bolt of light'ning and a streak of heat[00:01:56]

The Lion was on him with all four feet[00:01:59]

But the Monkey looks up from the corner of his eye[00:02:02]

Says "Now Mr Lion I apologize"[00:02:05]

The Monkey on his back studies up a scheme[00:02:09]

He's tryin' to trick that jungle king[00:02:11]

"Be bad with me I wish you would[00:02:15]

I'd tear you up all over the wood"[00:02:17]

The Lion jumps up squares off for a fight[00:02:21]

But the Monkey jumped completely out of sight[00:02:23]

"So if you bother me again[00:02:26]

I'll turn you over to my Elephant friend"[00:02:29]

You call yourself the jungle king[00:02:33]

You call yourself the jungle king[00:02:35]

You call yourself the jungle king[00:02:38]

I found out you ain't a doggone thing[00:02:41]
