With big hungry tigers
Table manners have no place
Dear dear dear no
Dear dear dear no
Dear dear oh dear no
After they have eaten you
They never say their grace
Dear dear dear no
Dear dear dear no
Dear dear oh dear no
Hunting tigers can be ripping fun
Like three blind mice, see the hunters run
Hunting tigers out in "Indiah"
Out in, out in, out in "Indiah"
Yah!
You all know how beastly tigers are
Out in, out in, out in "Indiah"
They bite
They scratch
They make an awful fuss
It's no use stroking them
And saying "Puss, puss, puss."
Oh,
Hunting tigers out in "Indiah"
Out in, out in, out in "Indiah"
Yah!
They bite
They scratch
They make an awful fuss
It's no use stroking them
And saying "Puss, puss, puss."
Oh,
Hunting tigers out in "Indiah"
Out in, out in, out in "Indiah"
Yah!
I say, J.O., it's jolly frightening out here.
Nonsense, dear boy, you should be like me.
But look at you, you're shaking all over! What's the matter with you?
Shaking, you silly goose, I'm just doing the Watusi, that's all!
Tigers don't go out on rainy nights
They've no need to whet their appetites
Hunting tigers out in "Indiah"
Out in, out in, out in "Indiah"
Yah!
How many tigers can you find
With forks and serviettes?
Dear dear dear no
Dear dear dear no
Dear dear oh dear no
Don't care in what part of you
They fix their fretwork sets
Dear dear dear no
Dear dear dear no
Dear dear oh dear no
Hunting tigers can be ripping fun
Like three blind mice, see the hunters run
Hunting tigers out in "Indiah"
Out in, out in, out in "Indiah"
Yah!
Hunting tigers out in "Indiah"
Out in, out in, out in "Indiah"
Yah!
