I woke up this morning
And I looked all around
I was looking for my monkey
My monkey couldn't be found

I called the police department
Put out an APB
So if you find my monkey
Send her on home to me

Who stole my monkey, my monkey, my monkey?
Somebody stole my monkey, stole my monkey from me
Who stole my monkey, my monkey, my monkey?
Somebody stole that funky ole monkey from me

So I moved to California
Way down in Hollywood
I got a brand new monkey
And we was doing real good
Standing on the corner
Singing a monkey grinding song
When the next thing I new
Somebody played me for a fool
She took my money and was long gone

Bridge:
My monkey got a cue ball head
She got a good attitude
And them long skinny legs
When we get back to the motel room
The way she shakes her tail
It makes my heart go boom, boom, boom
