I'm trying to put a name to a song.

Ive been told that its either Daktari or something to do with Clarence the cross eyed lion

Ive youtubed them both to death and havent found the song.

Obviously I cant sing it to you but can anybody give me any other ideas. I'm sure youll recognise the song I'm after

this one??

daktari

Wikipedia suggests it's a non descript made up sort of thing,

the lion sleeps tonight - as covered by tight fit, cannot who sang it original

in the junkle, the quiet jungle
the lion sleeps to night
in the junkle, the quiet jungle
the lion sleeps to night
a wimba way a wimba way
a wimba way a wimba way
a wimba way a wimba way

not exactly bob dylan

I am old!!!

I have the version by Karl Denver!!!!

I like this version

Hmmmm if it is the Daktari ( means doctor in Swahili) theme tune, there were 2. I think the most popular one was the second, written by Shelly Mann(e).

For some reason whenever I go to youtube it is in Spanish......
So if anyone can search for it..it maybe there?

Fozzie

mythemes.tv have the shelly manne version but none of the songs linked to so far are the song I'm after so i guess Ive been told incorrectly.

Oh well thanks for all the help.

Nope thats not it either

Sorry about the quality - its me whistling

I think that was an instrumental theme tune to a wildlife programme, not positive though. March of the Elephants seems to ring a bell, nothing to do with the Lawrence Arms one on youtube though.

Peteff - you da man

Baby Elephant Walk - Hatari


Thanks all

I've been reliably informed by SWMBO that it's "Baby Elephant Walk".
