Too Much Monkey Business

(words & music by 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

Oh-ho-ho



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

Oh-ho-ho



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

Oh-ho-ho



Oh-ho-ho ...... oh-ho-ho ...... oh-ho-ho ...... oh-ho-ho



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

Oh-ho-ho



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

Oh-ho-ho



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

Oh-ho-ho

Too much monkey business, oh-ho-ho, too much monkey business, oh-ho-ho

Too much monkey business, oh-ho-ho too much monkey business, oh-ho-ho

Too much monkey business, oh-ho-ho too much monkey business, oh-ho-ho
