Jungle Fever
© 2007 Ell N Ell Publications


I grew up in the jungle
In my Dad’s logging camp
Started working on his tug ‘bout nine or ten
I guess that’s how you see
It’s more than a job to me
It’s a way of life in our family

Jungle fever is running through my veins
And it keeps me from going insane
City life gets me down
You know where I’ll be found
Jungle fever is running through my veins

Like my father’s son before me
I grew up working hard
We had to do our schooling by mail
Lookin’ back on all that now
I always feel so proud
Of the life I had when I was a kid

Jungle fever is burning on my mind
I can hear it callin’ all the time
Doin’ the narrows on the ebb
It’s just like I said
Jungle fever is burning on my mind

Jungle fever is burning on my mind
I can hear it callin’ all the time
To the straits and to the Inlets
You know I’ll never forget
The jungle is where I spend my time
Jungle fever is burning on my mind
