Lyrics One Monkey Don't Stop the Show - Big Maybelle

One Monkey Don't Stop the Show

woke up this morning
And sat on the sideway
He said I’m leaving baby
And listen just to what I say
I said I can’t make you stay if you won’t go
But if it’s hard time baby you should know
One monkey don’t stop the show
One monkey don’t stop the show
So if you still wanna go, go ahead
And I mean every word I said
My baby thought I was jivin'
And he went right out the door
He left me about three in the morning
Hmm, I got me a man at four
Woman cry when they man leave
But I found my something a long time ago
One monkey don’t stop the show
One monkey don’t stop the show
So when he gets too big for his pants
Get brand new
Don’t give him a chance
I used to be chicken high
And cry when he walk out the door
'Cause I was just young and simple
Ah!
Ain’t like this no more
'Cause I had to go before I was cold
But I’m here to tell I should know
One monkey don’t stop the show
One monkey don’t stop the show
I let you get a thing or two
Had me a who can fill his shoes
One monkey don’t stop the show
One monkey don’t stop the show
One monkey don’t stop the show
And you can tell me I told you so
