E7

Am                                                                                        E7

Now I'm the king of the swingers, the jungle V. I. P.

 E7                                                                                                                       Am 

I've reached the top and had to stop and that's what's botherin' me

Am                                                                                        E7

I wanna be a man, man-cub, and stroll right into town

    E7                                                                                      Am                 G7

And be just like the other men, I'm tired of monkeyin' 'round, oh

CHORUS:

C                                                      A7

Ooh bee, doo I wanna be like you ooh ooh

                   D7                    G7                  C   A7    Dm   G7 

I wanna walk like you, talk like you too, ooh, ooh

C                                                      A7

You'll see it's true ooh, ooh, an ape like me, ee, ee

          D7                G7                              C A7 D7 G7

Can learn to be hu-ooh-ooh-man too, ooh, ooh

 

VERSE 2

Don't try to kid me man-cub and don't get in a stew

What I desire is man's red fire so I can be like you

Give me the secret man-cub, just clue me what to do

Give me the pow'r of man's red flow'r and make my dreams come true
