Lyrics:
First verse
When the jungle trees are swaying, Bending to the brezes, playing, After the sun goes down. Little monkey eyes are gleaming, Little monkey hearts are dreamin, Down in Jungle town. Ev'ry eye is turned toward the eastern sky, They're watching for the jungle moon. Watching for its beams of yellow, When the jungle moon is mellow, That's the time when monkeys like to spoon.
Chorus
By the light of the jungle moon, In the tree-tops above, Monkey boy sings a loving tune to his own turtle dove. And he whispers ""Sweet Monkey Maid, won't you come out and spoon? Here's where the bliss is, Come get your kisses, By the light of the jungle moon."" By the light of the jungle moon, In the tree-tops above, Monkey boy sings a loving tune to his own turtle dove. And he whispers ""Sweet Monkey Maid, won't you come out and spoon? Here's where the bliss is, Come get your kisses, By the light of the jungle moon.""
Second verse
Listen to the awful clatter, Monkeys wonder what’s the matter, There goes a monkey lad. Crashing through the jungle branches, Close behind him taking chances, Comes Miss Monkey’s Dad. Seems as if her angry Papa saw him kiss her, And he means to catch him soon, While the old man tries to find him, Monkey boy will steal behind him, Back where sweet Miss Monkey waits to spoon.
(Chorus)
