I was driving down the expressway
I was going to pay my bills
Everybody was passing me so fast
Darling, thought I was standing still

I say it's a jungle out there
Oh, it's a jungle out there
Everybody's in a hurry
And there ain't nobody going nowhere, no

Can you just imagine
A little child on the playground
If you turn your back
That little child will be gunned down

I say it's a jungle out there
Oh, it's a jungle out there
Everybody's in a hurry
And there ain't nobody going nowhere

I took out some insurance on me
Me, myself and I
I got hit by someone
That was too damn drunk to drive

I say it's a jungle out there
Oh, it's a jungle out there
Everybody's in a hurry
And there ain't nobody going nowhere
