Monkey

Lyrics:

• Pull into December
• And turn another year
• It's snowin like a curtain comin down
• One day at a time, is moving awful slow
• But it looks as if the year has turned around


• They're open on the left, they're open on the right
• They're open every day, they are open every night
• Trying to keep the train movin down the track
• Tryin to keep the monkey off my back


• Now if you make a livin when other people fall
• I tell you there is money to be made
• If you're cashin' in on their devils and desires
• You got it made in the shade


• Jumpin' on the left, and jumpin' on the right
• They're ghoulish in their glee, they're nasty when they bite
• Trying to get my train movin down the track
• Tryin to keep the monkeys off my back


• Piece of heart, Peace of mind
• Baby ain't it hard to find
• Piece of heart Peace of mind
• Sure gave away a lot of mine


• Pull in to December like a curtain comin down
• Addin up and movin on
• Thinkin bout some friends
• Their beginnings and their ends
• Wonderin how everything has gone


• Some go to the grave some go to the pen
• Some go to a place
• I never want to go again
