It was in history, four thousand BC up in the jungle in a coconut tree Hangin' on a branch up the sun Was a meddlesome named Jo Jo Gunne
Old Leo the lion down from the mountain To get a of water from the jungle fountain Jo Jo the monkey started tellin' him About the who was gonna skin him alive
Leo tried to reach and grab Jo tail Got mad and went roarin' through the trail He ran an elephant beneath a tree And said, "Put up your dukes, you tussle with me"
An ol' eagle Asia made a non stop flight Tryin' to make it in time, to see them fight A phoned and reversed the charge Comin' all the way from India on a barge
Ol' gorilla 'em talking in the lion's den But Jo Jo bet him three bucks the elephant Jo Jo yelled at Leo,"Go on, him down He don't outweigh you but a pounds"
Leo left with a left upper cut The took his snoot and grabbed a coconut Leo fired a beautiful back cross That's the coconut landed up against his jaw
Leo grew tired, but he give in The all loose, beat his jawbone in The said, they fought furious all day He understand how Leo got away
Jo Jo runnin' everywhere, spreadin' the To the zebras and the leopards and the A hoot owl everything he saw Had his eyes wide open, called it a draw
Leo limpin' with his jawbone bruised Jo Jo in the trees singin' the blues Laughin', meddlin', up and down 'Til his foot missed a and he fell to the ground
Just like a bolt of thunder and a streak of Leo Jo Jo with all four feet Jo Jo was screamin' with tears in his Said," Mr. Leo, I apologize"
Said, "If you let my upon solid ground I'll fight you range, fifteen rounds" Leo got to the square of the fight Jo Jo took a and jumped, out of sight
