The Lion Sleeps Tonight/Today, not in the mighty jungle but in the San Diego Zoo. It must have been very hot there too.
It's been a long time since I thought about this song. I still like it! You can listen to it here.
The photo is with thanks to my son and daughter-in-law who spent a few hours at the zoo yesterday.
I do recall that song, it's a good old one. The lion looks so peaceful.
ReplyDeleteIt is and he certainly does, thanks Margaret :)
DeleteI know this song well, I was a kid when it was released. And it was SO popular! I have no idea what it means though.
ReplyDeleteI found out a little bit more about it. I do an addition to this post soon. Thanks Ginny :)
