"The Lion Sleeps Tonight"
(originally by Solomon Linda)

Wdee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-ddee-dee
Wee-um-um-a-weh
Wdee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-ddee-dee
Wee-um-um-a-weh

A-weema-weh, a-weema-weh, a-weema-weh, a-weema-weh
A-weema-weh, a-weema-weh, a-weema-weh, a-weema-weh
A-weema-weh, a-weema-weh, a-weema-weh, a-weema-weh
A-weema-weh, a-weema-weh, a-weema-weh, a-weema-weh

In the jungle, the mighty jungle
The lion sleeps tonight
In the jungle, the quiet jungle
The lion sleeps tonight

Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
A-weema-weh
Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
A-weema-weh

Near the village, the peaceful village
The lion sleeps tonight
Near the village, the quiet village
The lion sleeps tonight

Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
A-weema-weh
Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh a-la-la-leh
A-weema-weh

Hush my darling, don't fear my darling
The lion sleeps tonight
Hush my darling, don't fear my darling
The lion sleeps tonight

Whoa
Whoa
A-weema-weh, a-weema-weh
A-weema-weh

Wdee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-ddee-dee
Wee-um-um-a-weh
Wdee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-ddee-dee
Wee-um-um-a-weh
Um-um-a-weh

Wdee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-ddee-dee
Wee-um-um-a-weh
