Stranded In The Jungle Lyrics - French Kiss '74 - New York Dolls

I crashed in the jungle while tryin' to keep a date 

With my little girl who was back in the States 

I was stranded in the jungle, afraid and alone 

Tryin' to figure a way to get a message back home 

But how was I to know there was a record jump my plane 

Had been picked up and spotted my girl in lovers lane 

And meanwhile, back in the States 

Baby, baby, let's make romance 

You know your old time lover hasn't got a chance 

He's stranded in the jungle, flat as he can be 

So come on pretty baby, just you and me 

Meanwhile back in the jungle 

The boys in the jungle had me on the run 

When something heavy hit me like an atomic bomb 

When I woke up and my head started to clear 

I had a strange feeling, I was with cooking gear 

I smelled something cookin' and I looked to see 

That's when I found out they was a cookin' me 

Great cuckoo, let me outta her 

Meanwhile back in the States 

Baby, baby, let's make romance 

You know your old time lover hasn't got a chance 

He's stranded in the jungle, flat as he can be 

So come on pretty baby, just you and me 

Meanwhile back in the jungle 

I jumped outta the pot and finally got away 

Frantic and worried about what my baby would say 

So I jumped in the ocean and started to swim 

But my chance of survival was gettin' mighty slim 

So I thumbed down a whale who was headin' my way 

And I reached the States in 'bout a half a day 

And when I got to lovers lane, I was almost dead 

When my soul was gone, here's what I said 

Baby, baby, your man is no good 

Baby, baby, he should've understood 

You can trust me as long as can be 

So come back pretty baby, where you used to be 

'Cause I love you, 'cause I love you 

'Cause I love you, 'cause I love you
