Whatever the Jungle

© 1998 by Eric Dahl

It’s 90 degrees out here, humidity’s 95,
guess I’ll get used to it, if I can just stay alive,
and I will love you whatever the jungle,
I will love you any way that you like.

There were flash flood warnings from Plano
to Georgetown, she said, “Let’s go out tonight.”
So we drove into town under dry lightning,
hillsides rising in the blasting light.
I’ve never seen such a rainstorm,
dropped eight inches in two hours,
water bouncing hard,
flowing down a river called 6th Street,
then in no time at all the sky went dry
and a soul band came out playing on a Friday night.

I will love you whatever the jungle,
I will love you any way that you like,
and I’ll write you a love song tonight
with real time television Doppler radar
lighting up the words with each lightning strike.

On a street in Texas there was a man
deep kissing a woman who could dance
and there was no one afraid of anything after
the lightning, in a side-street electrical trance.

I will love you whatever the jungle,
I will love you any way that you like.
I will love you whatever the jungle,
I will love you whatever the jungle,
I will love you.
