Concrete Jungle (MGM version)

[Verse 1]

When mornin' rolls around

I catch a bus downtown

To that same old job

It's a jungle out there

And nobody seems to care

In the rat race mob

Well, when things start buggin' me

I just stop and think of you, then suddenly

[Chorus]

The concrete jungle become Paradise

Whoa, oh-oh

[Verse 2]

I punch my little card

And I work so very hard

For such a little pay

Mm-mm, and from nine o'clock 'til five

Nobody cares if I'm alive

But now, that's okay

'Cause when the sun goes down in the west

And I run to meet the girl that I love the best

[Chorus]

The concrete jungle become Paradise

Whoa, oh

[Bridge]

But any place is Heaven

Just as long as you are by my side

No matter what the future holds

I'll always be satisfied

[Verse 3]

So let 'em push me around

And try to put me down

Until five o'clock

Mm-mm, I can grin and bear

'Cause I know you're waitin' there

Just down the block

And baby, baby, when I feel your warm embrace

You just make this world one wonderful place

[Chorus]

And the concrete jungle become Paradise

Yeah

[Instrumental Break]

[Outro]

And darlin', darlin', darlin', when I feel your warm embrace

You just make this world one big, wonderful place

And the concrete jungle become Paradise

And whoa, whoa, oh-oh

Paradise

Whoa, whoa, oh-oh
