Ashford & Simpson - The Jungle lyrics

rate me

(N. Ashford/V. Simpson)

Keep your face up

Don't ya be looking down

Hear a noise turn your head around

That's a fact got to know

How to act

In the jungle

Everybody say's gimme, gimme

So keep yourself a mystery

Be discreet with people you meet

In the jungle

Different stories

Different games

But remember they're all the same

Peole connive

To stay alive

But there's one golden rule

Everybody's got to pay their dues

In the jungle, in the jungle

Never say what you will or won't do

And don't trust anybody who

Looks away with every word they say

In the jungle

Use your instinct, never follow your mind

The right place but the wrong time

Is disaster

You got to think faster

In the jungle

Different stories

Different games

But remember they're all the same

People connive

To stay alive

But there's one golden rule

Everybody's got to pay their dues

In the jungle, in the jungle
