Monkey Time - Boz Scaggs[00:00:00]

Written by：W.R. Scaggs/C. Arrowsmith[00:00:00]

Back in '64 I was feeling 63[00:00:01]

The strangest sort of feeling[00:00:04]

Started creeping over me[00:00:05]

It's not the kind of feeling[00:00:07]

You would easily forget[00:00:09]

My head started burning[00:00:11]

And my knees began to sweat[00:00:12]

I figured I was crazy[00:00:14]

So I went back to my chair[00:00:16]

But I looked into my mirror[00:00:17]

And I just wasn't there[00:00:19]

Just then the window shattered[00:00:21]

And a monkey hit the floor[00:00:22]

Looked like it was time for me[00:00:24]

To make it to the door[00:00:26]

But the monkey grabbed my coat[00:00:28]

And took away my hat[00:00:29]

And I don't remember[00:00:31]

What happened after that[00:00:33]

Except my friends hear the story[00:00:34]

About how I left it all behind[00:00:36]

Seems ever since that day[00:00:38]

I've had that monkey on my mind[00:00:39]

Tried to do my best[00:00:41]

And make something of my life[00:00:43]

So I cut off all my relatives[00:00:48]

And then I left my wife[00:00:50]

I've tried a hundred cures[00:00:55]

Anything that I could find[00:00:57]

But you know life ain't easy[00:01:02]

With a monkey on your mind[00:01:04]

Every time I make my mind up[00:01:08]

I'm really gonna try[00:01:11]

Well that monkey starts jumping[00:01:15]

And looks me in the eye[00:01:17]

Oh dig the monkey[00:01:22]

Well something exploded[00:02:04]

When the monkey got loaded[00:02:06]

And we went out on the town[00:02:07]

The monkey got so drunk[00:02:11]

He started getting funky[00:02:12]

It was hard to hold the poor boy down[00:02:14]

He did the boogaloo the shoogaloo[00:02:18]

The Eskimo the Hindu[00:02:20]

He even made the teenage queen[00:02:21]

Oh the joint started leaping[00:02:25]

Everybody was a freaking[00:02:26]

The greatest show they'd ever seen[00:02:28]

Then someone started screaming[00:02:31]

And I woke up from my dreaming[00:02:33]

Tried to get myself realigned[00:02:35]

But it's all right[00:02:38]

And it all comes easy[00:02:40]

When you got a monkey on your mind[00:02:42]

Dig the monkey[00:02:45]

Oh one more time[00:02:48]

Dig the monkey[00:02:52]
