Johnny Cash, Flatt & Scruggs, Papa Charlie Jackson - Jungle Man Blues Songtexte

Ain't nothing in the jungle: That's any better than me
I'm the baddest man: Ever came from tennessee

I slept with a panther: Until just about the break of
Day
I grabbed the wildcat in the collar: And asked the tiger
What he had to say

I wear a scorpion for my watch fob: A rattlesnake for my
Chain
I scares a gorilla: And make him change his big ugly
Name

I make a *sea tick* catch a freight train: I make a flea
Grab the mail
I make a jumbo elephant: Grab an airplane and sail

I was traveling in a rowboat: Drifting out in the sea
I made a sea lion cub come back: And shake glad hands
With me

Way down in the forest: There's where I long to be
Because ain't nothing in the jungle: That's any better
Than me
