Too Much Monkey Business For Me

Chuck Berry

Too Much Monkey Business



Runnin' to-and-fro - hard workin' at the mill.

Never fail in the mail - yeah, come a rotten bill!

Too much monkey business. Too much monkey business.

Too much monkey business for me to be involved in!



Salesman talkin' to me - tryin' to run me up a creek.

Says you can buy now, gone try - you can pay me next week, ahh!

Too much monkey business. Too much monkey business.

Too much monkey business for me to be involved in!



Blond have good looks - tryin' to get me hooked.

Want me to marry - get a home - settle down - write a book!

Too much monkey business. Too much monkey business.

Too much monkey business for me to be involved in!



Same thing every day - gettin' up, goin' to school.

No need for me to complain - my objection's overruled, ahh!

Too much monkey business. Too much monkey business.

Too much monkey business for me to be involved in!



Take home - something wrong - dime gone - will hold

Order suit - hoppered up for telling me a tale - ahh!

Too much monkey business. Too much monkey business.

Too much monkey business for me to be involved in!



Been to Yokohama - been fightin' in the war.

Army bunk - Army chow - Army clothes - Army car, aah!

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 windows - check the tires - check the oil - dollar gas!

Too much monkey business. Too much monkey business.

Don't want your botheration, get away, leave me!



TOO MUCH MONKEY BUSINESS FOR ME!!
