Darlin' Darlinka

Look at that multicolored jungle bird

Saying the smoothest of words he ever heard

He don't realize he looks so absurd

In his lying

Well, we ain't worried about it

See us laughing

We knew it all along

Darling, darling, girl, hang on to your hope

'Cause it sure is a jungle

Darling, darling, girl, your heart is your rope

It sure is a jungle

Darling, darling, girl, hang on to your hope

Hang on to your hope

Look at that Creole crocodile

Speaking backwards, staying a while

Trying to fool everyone with a smile

See him smiling

Well, he made a purse from his mother's alligator

Need a dose, see you later

Darling, darling, girl, hang on to your hope

'Cause it sure is a jungle

Darling, darling, girl, your heart is your rope

Sure is a jungle

Darling, darling, girl, hang on to your hope

Hang on to your hope

Here comes that jibber-jabber jiving monkey

Thinks he's funny, thinks he's funky

He talks so city silly

In the heart of this country

Well, we ain't crying about it

See us laughing

We knew it all along

Darling, darling, girl, hang on to your hope

'Cause it sure is a jungle

Darling, darling, girl, your heart is your rope

It sure is a jungle

Darling, darling, girl, hang on to your hope

Hang on to your hope

Darling, darling, girl, hang on to your hope

Hang on to your hope

Hang on

Darling, darling, girl, hang on to your hope

Hang on to your hope, to your hope

Darling, darling, girl, hang on to your hope

Hang on to your hope, to your hope

Darling, darling, girl, hang on to your hope

Hang on to your hope

Darling, darling, girl, hang on to your hope

'Cause it sure is a jungle
