| It was in ancient history, four thousand B.C. | |
| Back up in the jungle in a coconut tree | |
| Hanging on a branch up under the sun | |
| Was a meddlesome monkey named Jo Jo Gunne | |
| Old Leo the lion came down from the mountain | |
| To get a drink of water from the jungle fountain | |
| Jo Jo the monkey started tellin' him jive | |
| About the elephant who was gonna skin him alive | |
| Leo tried to reach and grab Jo Jo's tail | |
| Got mad and went roarin' through the jungle trail | |
| He ran upon an elephant beneath a tree | |
| And said, put up your dukes you gotta tussle with me | |
| An ol' eagle from Asia made a non stop flight | |
| Tryin' to make it in time, just to see them fight | |
| A crocodile phoned and reversed the charge | |
| Coming all the way from India on a local barge | |
| Ol' gorilla heard 'em talking in the lion's den | |
| But Jo Jo bet him three bucks the elephant wins | |
| Jo Jo yelled at Leo, Go on, knock him down | |
| He don't outweigh you but a thousand pounds | |
| Leo left wailin' with a left upper cut | |
| The elephant took his snoot and grabbed a coconut | |
| Leo fired a beautiful short back cross | |
| That's when the coconut landed up against his jaw | |
| Leo grew tired, but he wouldn't give in | |
| The elephant all loose, beat his jawbone in | |
| The buzzard said, they fought furious all day | |
| He couldn't understand how Leo got away | |
| Jo Jo runnin' everywhere, spreadin' the news | |
| To the zebras and the leopards and the kangaroos | |
| A hoot owl reported everything he saw | |
| Had his eyes wide open, they called it a draw | |
| Leo limping back with his jawbone bruised | |
| Jo Jo in the trees started singin' the blues | |
| Laughin', meddling, jumpin' up and down | |
| Till his foot missed a limb and he fell to the ground | |
| Just like a bolt of thunder and a streak of heat | |
| Leo covered Jo Jo with all four feet | |
| Jo Jo was screamin' with tears in his eyes | |
| Said, please mister Leo, I apologize | |
| Said, if you let my feet upon solid ground | |
| I'll fight you close range, fifteen rounds | |
| Leo got back to the square of the fight | |
| Jo Jo took a leap and jumped... out of sight |
