Jungle

Jungle

I went to the jungle one night,
There I got this terrible fright.
With all my hands up in the air,
No chance or not even a care.


I am white, yet I seem yellow.
I am not young, an old fellow,
I have a problem in the city.
I am here give me some pity.


Help me to leave this place,
Take me to a place that's safe.
City's a jungle with wild people,
Like here with the wild animals.


Take me where I'll be in peace,
Mountain top or by the creek.
If I can do what I want to do,
I am crippled but I can move.


This old body needs some care,
The seclusion of a peaceful place,
Want to live at a slow easy pace.
My memories have almost gone,


I am a burden for them to care for,
leave me alone I won't ask for more.
I ask that God always be with me.
On a mountain or down in a valley.
