"Stranded in the Jungle" is a song originally recorded by the American doo-wop group the Jay Hawks. It was written by Ernestine Smith and the band's first tenor, James Johnson. The Jay Hawks' version of the song peaked at #18 on the ''Billboard Magazine'' Best Selling Popular Retail Records Chart. ==Cover versions== Recording cover versions of contemporary songs was standard industry practice during the 1940s and 1950s. A hit song could generate many different versions: pop and instrumental, polka, blues, hillbilly and others by a variety of artists.〔Ken Burke and Dan Griffin. ''The Blue Moon Boys - The Story of Elvis Presley's Band''. 2006. Chicago Review Press. page 87. ISBN 1-55652-614-8〕 The American doo wop group, The Cadets, were the first to cover the Jay Hawks' hit, with the Gadabouts not far behind. All three groups proved to be one-hit wonders, with "Stranded in the Jungle" being the only top-40 hit for any of them. The Rhythm Rockets and the Johnston Brothers (B-side to "In the Middle of the House" by the Johnston Brothers and the Keynotes) also covered it in 1956.
