I'll tellya somethin thats hard ta learn
Singa jinga linga jinga linga jinnnnng
A worried fire wont never burn
Singa jinga linga jinga linga jinnnnng.

Jinga ling, jinga ling,
Singa jinga linga jinga linga jing
Singa jing, jinga ling,
Singa jinga linga jinga linga jinnnnng.

Heres a little news that just cant wait
Singa jinga linga jinga linga jinnng
Y'd better tittle now than ta tryta tittle later
Singa jinga linga jinga linga jinnnnng.

Good advice is the only thing
Singa jinga linga jinga linga jing
Nobody in this world can use
Singajinga linga linga linga jinnnnng.

Its one more word jus' fore I go
Singa jinga linga jinga linga jinnnnng
I rutherd smoke here th'n hereaftore
Singa jinga linga jinga linga jinnnnng.

This world runs full of robbin men
Singa jinga linga jinga linga jinnnnng
They'll rob with a gun or a fountain pen
Singa jinga linga jinga linga jinnnnng.

I come fromma land of free an' brave
Singa jinga linga jinga linga jinriming
The free's in jail an' th' brave in graves
Singa jinga linga jinga linga jinnnnng.
