It's Monkey Time Lyrics

That sounds like jungle music to me children
I got a little jungle song for you
Well down in the jungle where the rain blows free
Lived a signified monkey in a coconut tree
Monkey met the lion one bright sunny day
Said if you gonna be the king you've gotta move this way

Do the monkey shine
Do the monkey shine
Well it's a new sensation that's shaking this nation
Do the monkey shine

By (?) buffalo (?) by the lake
Omaha and Denver and out in L.A.
On my way to Memphis and that hometown of mine
Jackson Tennessee doing the monkey shine

The monkey shine
The monkey shine
Well it's a new sensation that's shaking this nation
The monkey shine it's called
The monkey shine

Well the lion let out with a great big roar
It's tail went back like a forty-four
Monkey crawled the tree in just in time
The raised one foot up and down
The monkey shine

It's monkey shine
It's monkey shine
Well it's a new sensation that's shaking this nation
It's monkey time

Everybody do the monkey shine
Well it's a new sensation that's shaking this nation
It's monkeytime

Let's do the monkey time everybody
It's monkeytime everybody
Do the monkeytime
Monkey monkeytime
