Verse 1
A
G
Listen to the lingo, better start to swing
In the African jungle, way down deep
All of the animals fast asleep
A native boy who was kept to the jive
Said I'm gonna make the
jungle poppin' alive
Beatin' on the drum in his native style
A
G
You could hear his rhythm
up and down the Nile
A monkey swung down
from a howl of limbs
Said, I feel that rhythm deep within
An antelope jumped from behind a tree
Said, it sure sounds mighty fine to me
Bm
D
An elephant shook his mighty snout
nothing's wrong
all night long
Rockin' in the Congo

Well, an alligator crawled
from his watery bed
Turned to the kempo and
here's what he said
Said, jump that boy, it's time to swing
Can't you hear that rhythm ring?
An ostrich pat his head in the ground
A zebra called to a slick kudu
Said, this is the beat for me and you
None of the animals had a clock
But everybody knew it was time to rock
Across the plains and high on a hill
all night long
Rockin' in the Congo,
A
G
Listen to the lingo, better start to swing
