There I was in all of my innocence lovin' you with all of my might

Come to find out I didn't have any cent you had a different darlin' every night

Peel me a manner toss me a peanut I'll come swinging from a coconut tree

Peel me a manner toss me a peanut you sure made a monkey out of me

[ guitar ]

I gave you kisses and I gave you lovin' tried to please your every little whim

At all I laid it up to a big bad nothin' last night you uped and ran away with him

Peel me a manner...

Peel me a manner...

Peel me a manner...
