Bobby Darin Jingle Jangle Jungle Lyrics

Jingle Jangle Jungle Lyrics

I live in a jingle jangle jungle 

      If you ain't got it you can't be 

      Fightin' over crumbs 

      Wait till payday comes 

      Gettin' green ink thumbs 

      From countin' 

      While it's mountin' 

      In this jingle jangle jungle I call home. 



      You live in a jingle jangle jungle 

      If you can't earn it you ain't free 

      Where a life is spent 

      Tryin' to meet the rent 

      Payin' back the cent 

      You borrow 

      Some tomorrow 

      In this jingle jangle jungle you call home. 



      We live in a jingle jangle jungle 

      You're only worth what you can buy 

      So keep on workin' hard 

      To keep your own back yard 

      Teach your kids that God 

      Ain't fiction 

      Contradiction 

      In this jingle jangle jungle you call home. 



      I live in a jingle jangle jungle 

      If it don't jingle it's gonna fold 

      All the things you own 

      Are only here on loan 

      It's by bread alone 

      You're livin' 

      Call this livin' 

      In this jingle jangle jungle we call home. 



      I live in a jingle jangle jungle 

      Where people die to make some green 

      Turnin' men to boys 

      Makin' new war toys 

      Dancin' to the noise 

      Of ticker 

      Can't get much sicker 

      In this jingle jangle jungle we can home.
