Well my fever is running high 

and I'm suffering with a cold

and I'll soon be walking on the streets of gold

and I'll ask ya boy, don't you monkey round my widder

when I gone



If you monkey round my widder I'm telling you the fact

my big white ghost will come sneeking back

and I'll haunt you boy

If you monkey round my widder when I'm gone



My honey has told me over and over again

there will be no more sparking after I check in

I'll ask you boy? Don't ya monkey round my widder 

when I'm gone

If you monkey round my widder I'm telling you true

some dark night I'll scare the hell out of you

I'll hant ya boy if you monkey round my widder

when I'm gone

Inst.

Oh her cooking is good and her loving is fine

but when I leave this world she'll still be mine

and I'll ask ya boy not to monkey round my widder when 

I'm gone



If you monkey round my widder I'm telling you the fact

my big white ghost will come sneeking back

and I'll haunt you boy

If you monkey round my widder when I'm gone



I'll soon be leaving this world of sin

one pretty woman with a lot of you men

I'm telling you boy,, don't ya monkey round my widder 

when I'm gone



If you monkey round my widder I'm telling you the fact

my big white ghost will come sneeking back

and I'll haunt you boy

If you monkey round my widder when I'm gone

I'll haunt you boy

If you monkey round my widder when I'm gone
