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 window, 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
