The Lion Sleeps Tonight

The Lion Sleeps Tonight
(lyrics by G. Weiss/L. Creatore/H. Peretti - song is traditional, a.k.a. "Wimoweh". R.E.M.'s version appeared on the single for "The Sidewinder Sleeps Tonight")

In the jungle, the quiet jungle, the lion sleeps tonight
In the jungle, the mighty jungle, the lion sleeps tonight

In the village, the quiet village, the lion sleeps tonight
In the village, the peaceful village, the lion sleeps tonight

Hush my darling, don't cry my darling, the lion sleeps tonight
Hush my darling, don't cry my darling, the lion sleeps tonight
