Jo Jo Gunne - Chuck Berry[00:00:01]
It was in ancient history four thousand B C [00:00:03]
Back up in the jungle in a coconut tree[00:00:06]
Hanging on a branch up under the sun[00:00:09]
Was a meddlesome monkey named Jo Jo Gunne[00:00:11]
Old Leo the lion came down from the mountain[00:00:16]
To get a drink of water from the jungle fountain[00:00:19]
Jo Jo the monkey started tellin' him jive[00:00:21]
About the elephant who was gonna skin him alive[00:00:24]
Leo tried to reach and grab Jo Jo's tail[00:00:32]
Got mad and went roarin' through the jungle trail[00:00:34]
He ran upon an elephant beneath a tree[00:00:37]
And said "Put up your dukes you gotta tussle with me"[00:00:39]
An ol' eagle from Asia made a non stop flight[00:00:45]
Tryin' to make it in time just to see them fight[00:00:47]
A crocodile phoned and reversed the charge[00:00:50]
Comin' all the way from India on a local barge[00:00:52]
Ol' gorilla heard 'em talking in the lion's den[00:01:00]
But Jo Jo bet him three bucks the elephant wins[00:01:03]
Jo Jo yelled at Leo "Go on knock him down[00:01:06]
He don't outweigh you but a thousand pounds"[00:01:08]
Leo left wailin' with a left upper cut[00:01:13]
The elephant took his snoot and grabbed a coconut[00:01:16]
Leo fired a beautiful short back cross[00:01:19]
That's when the coconut landed up against his jaw[00:01:21]
Leo grew tired but he wouldn't give in[00:01:29]
The elephant all loose beat his jawbone in[00:01:31]
The buzzard said they fought furious all day[00:01:34]
He couldn't understand how Leo got away[00:01:36]
Jo Jo runnin' everywhere spreadin' the news[00:01:42]
To the zebras and the leopards and the kangaroos[00:01:44]
A hoot owl reported everything he saw[00:01:47]
Had his eyes wide open they called it a draw[00:01:49]
Leo limpin' back with his jawbone bruised[00:01:57]
Jo Jo in the trees started singin' the blues[00:02:00]
Laughin' meddlin' jumpin' up and down[00:02:03]
'Til his foot missed a limb and he fell to the ground[00:02:05]
Just like a bolt of thunder and a streak of heat[00:02:10]
Leo covered Jo Jo with all four feet[00:02:13]
Jo Jo was screamin' with tears in his eyes[00:02:16]
Said " Please Mr Leo I apologize"[00:02:18]
Said "If you let my feet upon solid ground[00:02:26]
I'll fight you close range fifteen rounds"[00:02:29]
Leo got back to the square of the fight[00:02:32]
Jo Jo took a leap and jumped out of sight[00:02:34]
