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' the jag

About the elephant who was gonna skin the lion



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 upon 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,?O:P
