John Mayall & The Bluesbreakers - Life In The Jungle lyrics

This town is like a jungle As somebody rightly said A friend of mine was walking home one night And somebody k**ed her dead Cut down by a junkie Coz she would not go to bed That's life in the jungle Somebody's got a knife You better get yourself a gun The junkie on the corner He ain't havin' any fun He just might decide to k** you And you won't be the only one That's life in the jungle I can hear the streets a callin' Every time the sun goes down When nighttime starts a fallin' I wanna walk the streets of town The night time is calling me To come out and hear the sound Of life in the jungle Just the other night I was walkin' all alone Suddenly I found myself Standing next to my dead friend's home And somewhere in the darkness I could hear the jungle moan "That's life in the jungle"
