cover from Kip Tyler & His Flips 1958
Lux once mentioned in an interview that he was never really happy with the sound of the first two Studio Albums (Songs The Lord Taught Us - 1980 March & Psychedelic Jungle - 1981 May) and I agree! The Ohio Demos do document the Sound, that they had, much better!
Lyrics:
Far away in Africa
They all come from near and far
Rock all night and never stop
Dancin' to the jungle hop
Take the skins of 10 giraffes
For one beat-up phonograph
Now they dance and do the bop
They rock all night to jungle hop
Rock!
Under jungle stars above
All night make jungle love
Have a ball and blow their tops
They rock all night to jungle hop
