Jungle Book - I Wanna Be Like You

No[Am]w I'm the king of the swingers, the jungle V. I. P.             [E7]

I'[Am]ve reached the top and had to stop and that's what's botherin' me

I [E7]wanna be a man, man-cub, and stroll right into town

An[Am]d be just[G7] like the other men, I'm tired of monkeyin' 'round, oh

Oo[C]h,  ooh,  ooh,  I wanna be like you ooh ooh       [A7]

I [D7]wanna walk like you, [G7]talk like you too,[C] ooh, ooh      [A7]                 [Dm7]

Yo[G7]u'll see i[C]t's true ooh,  ooh,  an ape like me, ee, [A7]ee

Ca[D7]n learn to be hu[G7]-ooh-ooh-man too, ooh, ooh[C]                 [A7]                           [D7]                                    [G7]

Don't try to kid me man-cub and don't get in a stew
What I desire is man's red fire so I can be like you
Give me the secret man-cub, just clue me what to do
Give me the pow'r of man's red flow'r and make my dreams come true

I like your mannerisms, we'll be a set of twins
No one will know where man-cub ends and orangutan begins
And when I eat bananas, I won't peel them with my feet
'Cause I'll become a man-cub and learn some etti - keet.
