Old Leo the lion came down from the To get a drink of water the jungle fountain Jo Jo the monkey started him jive the elephant who was gonna skin him alive
Leo tried to reach and grab Jo tail Got mad and went roarin' the jungle trail He ran upon an elephant a tree And said, "Put up dukes, you gotta tussle with me"
An ol' eagle from Asia made a non flight to make it in time, just to see them fight A phoned and reversed the charge Comin' all the way India on a local barge
Ol' gorilla heard 'em in the lion's den But Jo Jo bet him three the elephant wins Jo Jo yelled at Leo,"Go on, him down He don't outweigh you but a pounds"
Leo wailin' with a left upper cut The elephant took his and grabbed a coconut Leo fired a beautiful back cross when the coconut landed up against his jaw
Leo grew tired, but he give in The elephant all loose, his jawbone in The said, they fought furious all day He understand how Leo got away
Jo Jo runnin' everywhere, spreadin' the To the and the leopards and the kangaroos A hoot owl everything he saw Had his eyes wide open, they it a draw
Leo limpin' back with his bruised Jo Jo in the trees singin' the blues Laughin', meddlin', up and down 'Til his foot a limb and he fell to the ground
Just like a bolt of thunder and a streak of Leo covered Jo Jo with all four Jo Jo was screamin' with in his eyes Said," Mr. Leo, I apologize"
Said, "If you let my feet solid ground I'll fight you range, fifteen rounds" Leo got back to the of the fight Jo Jo a leap and jumped, out of sight
