Jungle Rhythm
That morning sun
Peeks over the mountains
And all the rhinos rub their eyes
When they hear
Hear the jungle rhythm.
Those birds are tap tap tappin’ the tree trunks
The busy bee hums as he flies
Loud and clear
To the jungle rhythm.
Now you can high tail it out of the jungle
But it never leaves your heart
First you feel that beat start bubbling under
Then you hear the tom-toms loud as thunder
Sounds a lot like bein’ free
When you feel
Feel the jungle rhythm.
Feel the jungle rhythm.
Feel the jungle rhythm.
Ain’t nothing but a man cub
You ain’t nothin’ but a man cub;
Same as other men.
You ain’t nothin’ but a man cub;
Same as other men.
And if you’re thinkin’ you’re a wolf
Then you’d better think again.
When they called you a wolf cub;
Well that was just a lie
When they called you a wolf cub;
Well that was just a lie
Well you can’t stay here in the jungle
And your friend can tell you why!
You ain’t nothin’ but a man cub;
Same as other men.
You ain’t nothin’ but a man cub;
Same as other men.
And if you’re thinkin’ you’re a wolf
Then you’d better think again.
Colonel’s March
HATHI Hup, two, three, four keep it up two, three, four
ALL Hup, two, three, four, keep it up two, three, four
ALL Oh the aim of our patrol
Is a question rather droll
For to march and drill over field and hill
Is a military goal
ALL Is a military goal
HATHI Hup, two, three, four keep it up two, three, four
ALL Hup, two, three, four keep it up two, three, four
By the ranks or single file
Over ev’ry jungle mile
Oh we stamp and crush thru the underbrush
BABY ELEPHANT In a military style
ALL In a military style
HATHI Company Halt!
The Bare Necessities
ALL Look for the bare necessities
The simple bare necessities
Forget about your worries and your strife
I mean the bare necessities
Or Mother Nature’s recipes
That bring the bare necessities of life!
BALOO Wherever I wander,
Wherever I roam
I couldn’t be fonder
Of my big home
ALL The bees are buzzing in the tree
To make some honey just for me
You look under the rocks and plants
And take a glance at the fancy ants,
Then maybe try a few
The bare necessities of life will come to you
They’ll come to you
ALL Look for the bare necessities
The simple bare necessities
Forget about your worries and your strife
I mean the bare necessities
Or Mother Nature’s recipes
That bring the bare necessities of life!
MOWGLI + BALOO Wherever I wander,
Wherever I roam
I couldn’t be fonder
Of my big home
ALL The bees are buzzing in the tree
To make some honey just for me
You look under the rocks and plants and
Take a glance at the fancy ants, then
Maybe try a few
The bare necessities of life will come to you
They’ll come to you
They’ll come to you
They’ll come to you
They’ll come to you, you, you, you, you
The Bare Necessities of life

The Vulture Song
When you’re alone, who comes around?
To pluck you up, when you are down?
And when you’re outside looking in who’s there to open the door
That’s what friends are for.
Who’s always eager to extend a friendly claw?
That’s what friends are for.
And when you’re lost, in dire need,
Who’s at your side at lightning speed
We’re friends with ev’ry creature coming down the pike
In fact, we’ve never met an animal we didn’t like (didn’t like)
So you can see
We’re friends in need
And friends in need
Are friends in deed
We’ll keep you safe in the jungle for evermore
That’s what friends are for!
My own Home
SHANTI My own home, my own home
My own home, my own home
Father's hunting in the forest
Mother's cooking in the home
I must go to fetch the water
'Til the day that I am grown
'Til I'm grown, 'til I'm grown
I must go to fetch the water
'Til the day that I am grown
ALL Father's hunting in the forest
Mother's cooking in the home
I must go to fetch the water
'Til the day that I am grown
'Til I'm grown, 'til I'm grown
I must go to fetch the water
'Til the day that I am grown
ALL I will have a handsome husband
And a daughter of my own
I’ll send her to fetch the water
I'll be cooking in the home
My own home, my own home
I'll send her to fetch the water
I'll be cooking in the home
