Too Much Monkey Business

Chuck Berry

Salesman talking to me tried to run me up a creek


Says you can buy it, go on try it, you can pay me next week


Uh-uh, too much monkey business, too much monkey business


Too much monkey business for me to be involved in





Blonde haired, good lookin' tryin' to get me hooked


Wants me to marry, settle down and get a home and and write a book


Uh-uh, too much monkey business, too much monkey business


Too much monkey business for me to be involved in





Pay phone, somethin' wrong, dial gone,


Well me ought to sue the operator for tellin' me a tale


Uh-uh, too much monkey business, too much monkey business


Too much monkey business for me to be involved in





Been to Vietnam, been a fightin' in the war


Army bar, army chow, army clothes, army car


Uh-uh, too much monkey business, too much monkey business


Too much monkey business for me to be involved in





Workin' in the fillin' station, too many tasks


Wipe the windo', check the tires, check the oil, dollar gas


Uh-uh, too much monkey business, too much monkey business


Too much monkey business for me to be involved in





Blonde haired, good lookin' tryin' to get me hooked


Wants me to marry, get a home, settle down and and write a book


Uh-uh, too much monkey business, too much monkey business


Too much monkey business for me to be involved in





Too much monkey business, too much monkey business,


Too much monkey business, too much monkey business,


Too much monkey business, too much monkey business,
