Sock MONKEY

Rules !

 



The little fella 



first gained popularity 



in the 



Midwestern region 



of the U.S. 



made from 



"Red Heel" socks 



It was the sock that America wore 



to work



compliments of Rockford, Illinois



A symbol of working class families



just tryin'



to make a livin'



just tryin' to make ends meet



didn't need no shiny doll



didn't need Barbie's disco gear



just want to hold my sock monkey



just wanted to hold my sock monkey



'til my daddy comes



Daddy wore those red heeled socks 



every day when he went to work

   

 









I'm want to hold my sock monkey 



'til Daddy comes through that door



and opens up his arms 



to envelope me  



sock monkey 



can fly ! 



can slew dragons !



can out shoot'em !



and out dance'em !



sock monkey



makes everything all right



sock monkey 



takes care of me



ruby red lips



long, black eyelashes



loving smile



true heart



just want to hold my sock monkey



'til Daddy comes through that door



gonna hold my sock monkey



'til Daddy comes through that door



Just a working class girl



who can't afford a shiny doll



but i'm just as happy 



holding my sock monkey



'til Daddy comes through that door



'cause he gets me through the night



'cause he makes everything all right
