Train I ride, sixteen coaches long
Train I ride, sixteen coaches long


Well that long black train got my baby and gone


Train, train, comin' 'round, 'round the bend
Train, train, comin' 'round the bend
Well it took my baby, but it never will again no, not again


Train, train, comin' down, down the line
Train, train, comin' down down the line
Well it's bringin' my baby, 'cause she's mine all, all mine
(She's mine, all, all mine)


Train, train, comin' 'round, 'round the bend 'round the bend
Train, train, comin' 'round the bend 'round the bend
Well it took my baby, but it never will again never will again





I am the king of the jungle
They call me the tiger man
I am the king of the jungle
They call me tiger man
If you cross my path
You take your own life in your hands


Yeh, I get up on a mountain
And I call my black cat back
Yeh, I get up on a mountain
And I call my black cat back
My black cat comes a runnin'
And the hound dogs get way back


I am the king of the jungle
They call me the tiger man
I am the king of the jungle
They call me tiger man
If you cross my path
You take your own life in your hands


Yeh, I get up on a mountain
And I call my black cat back
Yeh, I get up on a mountain
And I call my black cat back
My black cat comes a runnin'
And the hound dogs get way back
