Jo Jo Gunne - Chuck Berry (查克·贝里)[00:00:00]
It was in ancient history [00:00:03]
Four thousand B C [00:00:04]
Back up in the jungle in a coconut tree[00:00:06]
Hanging on a branch up under the sun[00:00:08]
Was a meddlesome monkey named Jo Jo Gunne[00:00:11]
Old Leo the lion came down[00:00:16]
From the mountain[00:00:18]
To get a drink of water[00:00:19]
From the jungle fountain[00:00:20]
Jo Jo the monkey started tellin' him jive[00:00:21]
About the elephant[00:00:24]
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'[00:00:34]
Through the jungle trail[00:00:35]
He ran upon an elephant beneath a tree[00:00:37]
And said put up your dukes[00:00:39]
You gotta tussle with me[00:00:41]
An ol' eagle from Asia made a non stop flight[00:00:44]
Tryin' to make it in time [00:00:47]
Just to see them fight[00:00:48]
A crocodile phoned[00:00:50]
And reversed the charge[00:00:51]
Coming all the way[00:00:52]
From India on a local barge[00:00:53]
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 [00:01:05]
Knock him down[00:01:07]
He don't outweigh you[00:01:08]
But a thousand pounds[00:01:09]
Leo left wailin' with a left upper cut[00:01:13]
The elephant took his snoot[00:01:16]
And grabbed a coconut[00:01:17]
Leo fired a beautiful short back cross[00:01:18]
That's when the coconut[00:01:21]
Landed up against his jaw[00:01:22]
Leo grew tired but he wouldn't give in[00:01:29]
The elephant all loose [00:01:31]
Beat his jawbone in[00:01:32]
The buzzard said [00:01:34]
They fought furious all day[00:01:35]
He couldn't understand[00:01:36]
How Leo got away[00:01:38]
Jo Jo runnin' everywhere [00:01:42]
Spreadin' the news[00:01:43]
To the zebras and the leopards[00:01:44]
And the kangaroos[00:01:46]
A hoot owl reported everything he saw[00:01:47]
Had his eyes wide open [00:01:49]
They called it a draw[00:01:50]
Leo limping back with his jawbone bruised[00:01:57]
Jo Jo in the trees started singin' the blues[00:02:00]
Laughin' meddling jumpin' up and down[00:02:03]
Till his foot missed a limb[00:02:05]
And he fell to the ground[00:02:07]
Just like a bolt of thunder[00:02:10]
And a streak of heat[00:02:12]
Leo covered Jo Jo with all four feet[00:02:13]
Jo Jo was screamin'[00:02:16]
With tears in his eyes[00:02:17]
Said please mister Leo [00:02:18]
I apologize[00:02:20]
Said if you let my feet upon solid ground[00:02:26]
I'll fight you close range [00:02:29]
Fifteen rounds[00:02:30]
Leo got back to the square of the fight[00:02:32]
Jo Jo took a leap and jumped [00:02:34]
Out of sight[00:02:36]
