[Verse 1] Plane landed New people, new language New beginnings, new city, new dangers I'm a stranger to restaurants and silly songs About love, finding peace and getting what you want Yes lord guide me through No lord I won't stray Yes lord I need you Cuz home is such a long way [Chorus] But I know This ain't home I'm just monkey in the jungle Yes I know Long way to go But this monkey's gonna make it out the struggle [Verse 2] New cousins, new uncles New surroundings Trying to make friends But they won't allow me New sadness, so empty I'm all alone No one gets me Specially not at home No America I'm looking for a miracle I just need a friend or someone real close
Can't adapt to the new I know Yet can't look back on my older home [Chorus] But I know This ain't home I'm just monkey in the jungle Yes I know Long way to go But this monkey's gonna make it out the struggle Out of the struggle x2 Monkey gonna make it out the struggle [Verse 3] Now I'm singing just to you Everything won't be so blue Yeah I'm singing right to you One day you dreams will come true x2 [Chorus] But I know This ain't home I'm just monkey in the jungle Yes I know Long way to go But this monkey's gonna make it out the struggle But I know No this ain't home I'm just monkey in the jungle But this monkey's gonna make it out the struggle
