Ever see the Congo when it's gleaming in the night
Ever see the jungle with the animals in fright
Put me in the Congo and the jungle and I'm right
Got that fever, jungle fever
Oh, you know the reason that I long to go
Dusky maiden, dark haired siren
Congo sweetheart
I'm comin' back to you
Wild eyed woman, native dreamgirl
Jungle fever is in my blood for you
Every hear a kettle drum
Pounding out of beat
Ever fight the silence
And the madness and the heat
That's the thrill I'm cravin'
And the music is so sweet
Got that fever, jungle fever
Oh, the Congo's callin' and I long to go
Dusky maiden, dark haired siren
Congo sweetheart
I'm comin' back to you
Wild eyed woman, native dreamgirl
Jungle fever is in my blood for you
Ever see the jungle with the animals in fright
Put me in the Congo and the jungle and I'm right
Got that fever, jungle fever
Oh, you know the reason that I long to go
Dusky maiden, dark haired siren
Congo sweetheart
I'm comin' back to you
Wild eyed woman, native dreamgirl
Jungle fever is in my blood for you
Every hear a kettle drum
Pounding out of beat
Ever fight the silence
And the madness and the heat
That's the thrill I'm cravin'
And the music is so sweet
Got that fever, jungle fever
Oh, the Congo's callin' and I long to go
Dusky maiden, dark haired siren
Congo sweetheart
I'm comin' back to you
Wild eyed woman, native dreamgirl
Jungle fever is in my blood for you
