Chip & Dale: Rescue Rangers
The Jets Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Sometimes, some crimes
Go slippin' through the crack
But these two gumshoes
Are pickin' up the slack
There's no case too big, no case too small
When you need help just call

(Chorus 1)
Ch-Ch-Ch-Chip 'n Dale
Rescue Rangers
Ch-Ch-Ch-Chip 'n Dale
When there's danger
No, no, it never fails
Once they're involved
Somehow whatever's wrong gets solved

Fresh prints, not since
Watson and Mr. Holmes
Have two minds so fine
Look under every stone
When you need some help to save the day
They're never far away

(Repeat Chorus 1)

(Bridge)
Grey skies, it's trouble
Bad guys see double
When they're around
The chips are never down

(Chorus 2)
Ch-Ch-Ch-Chip 'n Dale
Rescue Rangers
Ch-Ch-Ch-Chip 'n Dale
When there's danger
No, no, it never fails
They'll takes the clues
And find the wheres and whys and whos

(Sax Solo)

(Repeat Bridge)

(Repeat Chorus 2)

(Repeat with Ad-Libs and Fade)
Ch-Ch-Ch-Chip 'n Dale
Rescue Rangers




Ch-Ch-Ch-Chip 'n Dale

I used to love this theme song when I was a kid and had NO IDEA it was The Jets (whose music I loved in the 80's) who sung it......wow.

Jonathan Bowling

Me too man! 90s Kid! 👊

Riko J. Amado

I love that even if this wasn't the theme to a classic cartoon, it still works perfectly as a timeless song on its own. And by timeless, I mean totally 80s. :-D

Дмитрий Н

30 лет спустя увидел это чудо, слеза настальгии....

Tuco Salamanka

В 1991 самые первые выпуски у нас были именно с оригинальной английской заставкой, она нравилась больше всего, потом когда перевели помню расстроился, было уже не то.)

Kavardak

@Tuco Salamanka наконец то адекватный человек появился,который тоже помнит именно оригинальную песню из 91ого, а то полно людей мне утверждают ,что тогда уже перевод был

Andrea Patane

This song is retro yet so bouncy. The Jets sang it pretty good. That’s for sure. 👍🏻 if you remembered watching this show after 🏫.

Janie Doe

Andrea Patane, OMG, I'm having a Nostalgia-size headache, God I wish that the Hub would get the rights to air this AWESOME!!!! show on it's network, also Disney's Adventures Of The Gummi Bears, Goof Troop, Darkwing Duck, Ducktales, ETC, ETC. Because Kids today don't even know what good cartoons are.

Andrea Patane

I know how you feel. Today, new songs and 📺 shows are lame.

TwilightLink77
