Jungle's Wild Side
(Aaron Keith Nicholson)

Cricket chirped up high, Frog croaked down low
Drums beat the line in Jungle’s night time show
One hot evening far away, long ago
Boy and girl were mixing when he spoke
Come with me on a ride, on Jungle’s wild side
Come with me on a ride, on Jungle’s wild side

She talked, she giggled, she moved near
Eyes glowed and blinked, dipped and disappeared
Drove in deep, bounced 'round a tree
When they rolled to an end, their hearts beat and beat
Boy took Girl on a ride, on Jungle's wild side
Boy took Girl on a ride, on Jungle's wild side

She couldn’t see a thing, slide up and down by feel
Witch Bird whoo’ed, Bat squeaked, branches creaked
Boy said something, Girl let out a scream
Feelings going crazy, it was a wild scene
Girl bumped, bumped on a ride, on Jungle's wild side
Girl bumped, bumped on a ride, on Jungle's wild side

Rain began to fall, soft then harder
Pounded leopard, croc, snake, and spider
Sounded like gravel dumped on a wooden tray
Drenched Girl and Boy, slow, made their way
Both crossed Monkey Bridge on a ride, on Jungle's wild side
Both crossed Monkey Bridge on a ride, on Jungle's wild side

Back on this side he was asked, "Where you been?!”
"Out on a ride." She smiled, all but two turned in
Girl whispered and breathed, Boy was busy
Softly, Softly their night, turned into distant dreams
Together on a ride, on Jungle's wild side
Together on a ride, on Jungle's wild side
"Jungle's wild side"
