Louis Prima
I Wanna Be Like You ( King Louis Monkey Song) The Jungle Book
(Intro)
Bodoppadepedebade
(Verse 1)
Now I'm the king of swingers, oh
The jungle VIP
I've reached the top and had to stop
And that's what's bothering me
I wanna be a man, man-cub
And stroll right into town
And be just like the other men
I'm tired of monkeying round
(Chorus)
Oh oobee doo
I wanna be like you
I wanna walk like you, talk like you, too
You'll see it's true someone like me
Can learn to be like someone like you
( Instrumental music and sounds)
(Verse 2)
Now don't try to kid me, man-cub
I'll make a deal with you
What I desire is man's red flower
To make my dream come true
Now, give me the secret, man-cub
Come on, clue me what to do
Give me the power of mans red flower
So I can be like you
(Instrumental music and sounds)
(Chorus)
You
I wanna be like you
I wanna walk like you, talk like you, too
You'll see its true someone like me
Can learn to be like someone like you
Can learn to be like someone like me
Can learn to be like someone like you
