	Paul's bass makes the song in my opinion. It's great to really hear the strumming on the acoustic guitars and therefore it's great to play the song by yourself. The 'Ho He Ho' refrain is catchy and works great at live shows. Good drumming by Paul. Another great saxophone lick by Howie Casey. The laughter at the end is a bit over the top for me, but I understand something was needed to break through the Ho He Ho pattern.	Bobber	April 11, 2012

	That thumping bass gives the song a jaunty rollicking feel. Is there enyone else out there who sings along with this song, including the laughter during the fade-out?	Bruce Beatlefan	February 10, 2006

Lyrics

Down in the jungle is on the blink
You don't use money you don't pay rent
You don't ever know the time
But you don't mind

Ho hey ho...
Ho hey ho...

When your light is on the blink
You never think of worrying
What's the use of worrying?
When your bus has left the stop
You'd better drop your hurrying
What's the of hurrying?

Leave me alone mrs. Vandebilt
I've got plenty of time of my own
What's the use of worrying?
What's the use of hurrying?
What's the use of anything?

Ho hey ho...
Ho hey ho...

What's the use of worrying?
What's the use of hurrying?
What's the use of anything?

Ho hey ho...
Ho hey ho...

When your pile is one the wane
You don't complain of robbery
Run away don't bother me
What's the use of worrying?
What's the use of anything?

Leave me alone mrs. Washington
I've done plenty of time on my own

What's the use of worrying?
What's the use of hurrying? (no use!)
What's the use of anything?

Ho hey ho...
Ho hey ho...
