It's a blue, blue jungle Every vine every tree Yes, it's a blue, blue jungle Not like it used to be Because my little buddy My little Mowgli's far from me And I got the misery Oh, they civilized my man cub Washed his face and combed his hair (Sticky, gooey stuff... yeah) They civilized my man cub Gave him way-out clothes to wear (No where) They're messin' with my Mowgli And he would've made one swell bear Oh, I'm on the road to ruin Stewin' body night 'n' day Yes, I'm just a broodin', brewin' Stewin' while I'm turnin' gray I've got to have my man cub Gotta get him back here, right away Some way And if anyone tries to stop me He better bring all the help he can (Hear me talkin' to ya...) I said if anybody tries to stop me He gonna get a one way ticket To the promise land (I'm preachin' now) 'Cuz I'm gonna cave in his casaba I'm gonna pull it off And then lay it in his hands I've got those sad about him Can't live without him Balooo blues
