Far, far in the mountain\\
In a village called Jammy Dee\\
Theres a statue of a man on the back of a tiger\\
And this is how it became to be\\
\\
He's so famous, he's so brave\\
Thanks to him our lives our saved\\
the man who rode the tiger\\
But I know that secretly\\
He'd like to share the truth with me\\
The man who rode the tiger\\
\\
In a distant country\\
A lonely village mourned\\
For the lives of the children\\
Those of theme not yet born\\
The hungry eyes have taken them\\
One more every day\\
So the hunter came one dark, dark night\\
And took our cubs away\\
\\
He's so famous, he's so brave\\
Thanks to him our lives our saved\\
the man who rode the tiger\\
But I know that secretly\\
He'd like to share the truth with me\\
The man who rode the tiger\\
\\
In the heart of the village\\
Is a man so brave and true\\
I'm going to save my children\\
If its the last thing that I do\\
So sharpen up my spear my friend\\
But don't polish up my gun\\
To kill would be a way my friend\\
But its not the way its done\\
\\
He's so famous, he's so brave\\
Thanks to him our lives our saved\\
the man who rode the tiger\\
But I know that secretly\\
He'd like to share the truth with me\\
The man who rode the tiger\\
\\
Deep deep in the jungle\\
The hunter did return\\
The cubs he'd stolen weeks before\\
The lesson he had learned\\
"Give me back my children, I'm sorry I attacked"\\
The villlage will forgive you, if you let me ride your back"\\
So the hunter returned the hero\\
On the back of the tiger\\
With all the children behind singing\\
La la la, La la la\\
\\
He's so famous, he's so brave\\
Thanks to him our lives our saved\\
the man who rode the tiger\\
But I know that secretly\\
He'd like to share the truth with me\\
The man who rode the tiger\\
\\
La la la, La la la\\
La la la, La la la\
