It's a blue, blue jungle Ev'ry vine, ev'ry 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 An' I got the misery Oh, they civilized my mancub Washed his face and combed his hair-sticky gooey stuff, yeah They civilized my mancub Gave him way-out clothes to where-nowhere They're messin' with my Mowgli And he would've made one swell bear Oh, I'm on the road to ruin Stewin' 'bout him night 'n day Yes, I'm just a broodin' bruin Stewin' while I'm turnin' gray I've got to have my mancub Gotta get him back here right away-someway And if anybody 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 promised land I'm preachin' now 'Cause I'm gonna cave in his casaba I'm gonna pull it off - And then lay it in his hand I've got those sad-about-'im Can't-live-without-'im Baloo blues
