Down in the jungle
Where nobody goes
There’s a slithery snake
Washing his clothes
With a rub-a-dub here
A rub-a-dub there
That’s the way he washes his clothes
Boom, boogie, boom, a boogie boogie woogie x3
That’s the way he washes his clothes
Down in the jungle
Where nobody goes
There’s a great big crocodile
Washing his clothes
With a rub-a-dub here
A rub-a-dub there
That’s the way he washes his clothes
Boom, boogie, boom, a boogie boogie woogie x3
That’s the way he washes his clothes
Down in the jungle
Where nobody goes
There’s a great big elephant
Washing his clothes
With a rub-a-dub here
A rub-a-dub there
That’s the way he washes his clothes
Boom, boogie, boom, a boogie boogie woogie x3
That’s the way he washes his clothes
