[Wyclef]
  One, two...
  One, two-One,two...
  Yo!
  
  [Chorus]
  Hey yo! The Streets Are Like A Jungle
  I'm countin' money in the jungle
  Hey yo! The Streets Are Like A jungle
  Guns go off in the jungle
  
  [Wyclef - Verse One]
  I tip my derby like Zorro
  Ain't no such things as war heroes
  Frontline planes fly by, like the sparrow (BLAOW!)
  My face hits the dirt, flashbacks of Vietnam
  Remind me of the L.A. riots, when it was on
  Fire hits the street, neon lights are bright
  My tank cuts the corner, enemies take flight (That's right!)
  Make no mistake, you can't have this cake it took too long to bake
  and you can't carry this weight, so move on
  These are the words of the elders
  Babysitters got caught with cocaine in a baby's diapers
  Explain that, in the form of a rap
  She got caught with vals, A-CRACK-A-LACK-A-LACK!!!
  Now I'm upset, I get back to the projects
  First one I blast was a usual suspect, a fiend
  In the alley, named Ricky
  Talked to a Det. rookie, gave him the info
  About the paliquo, and where he gotta go
  All he want in return is a Sony stereo
  
  [Chorus 1x]
  
  [Wyclef - Verse Two]
  Hey yo my mind is my business so I'm...
  Minding my own, in the club 'til this girl said,
  "Let me see your telephone"
  I passed her my celly
  She called her girl Mary
  And said that she just broke up with her nigga out in D.C.
  She needs a new honey, in the city she gets lonely
  I finally figured out her man's locked up in a penatentary
  So tell me, what should I do when she gets off the phone?
  The devil said, "Clef, take her ass home!"
  God says, "Repect her, her man's in the pen"
  This kid pushed me from behind, "Yo, why you fuckin' with my woman?!!!"
  Then his girl looked at me, she winked! I blinked!
  Now he's coming up to me with the gorilla instinct
  Aww, cool-n-shit! I'm sittin' here eatin' shrimp
  Besides, I would hate for you to be a missing link
  He said, "Son, do you know who I am?! I'm no man, but one man
  who? The son of Sam!"
  I said you've got this wrong, I never sung your girl a love song
  He drew for his weapon, there's no more conversation
  Cock!Cock!Cock!Cock!Cock!Cock! He released!
  then breathe, His aim went off balance
  The music got tense
  That's when I knew I was in trouble! The street is like a jungle!
  I jumped behind the bar, but caught two in the ankle! POW! (Echo)
