One Monkey Don't Stop the Show - Big Maybelle

woke up this morning

And sat on the sideway

He said I’m leaving baby

And listen just to what I say

I said I can’t make you stay if you won’t go

But if it’s hard time baby you should know

One monkey don’t stop the show

One monkey don’t stop the show

So if you still wanna go, go ahead

And I mean every word I said

My baby thought I was jivin'

And he went right out the door

He left me about three in the morning

Hmm, I got me a man at four

Woman cry when they man leave

But I found my something a long time ago

One monkey don’t stop the show

One monkey don’t stop the show

So when he gets too big for his pants

Get brand new

Don’t give him a chance

I used to be chicken high

And cry when he walk out the door

'Cause I was just young and simple

Ah!

Ain’t like this no more

'Cause I had to go before I was cold

But I’m here to tell I should know

One monkey don’t stop the show

One monkey don’t stop the show

I let you get a thing or two

Had me a who can fill his shoes

One monkey don’t stop the show

One monkey don’t stop the show

One monkey don’t stop the show

And you can tell me I told you so
