Lyrics Love Ain't Nothing (But A Monkey On Your Back) - Johnny Nash

Love Ain't Nothing (But A Monkey On Your Back)

Love ain’t nothing
But a monkey on your back
No, love ain’t nothing
But a monkey on your back
Well you better watch out boy
Or love will lead you down a one-way track
I found out that love ain’t nothing but a word
Yeah, I found out that love ain’t nothing but a word
I mean a crazy word I swear I wish I had never heard
Now love will make you
Oh, make you do bad things
Fill your heart with sad things
Oh, love will treat you mean boy
Treat your heart just like a toy
No, love ain’t nothing
But a monkey on your back
Well love will make you do
It’ll make you do bad things
It’ll fill your heart with sad things
Oh, love will treat you mean boy
Treat your heart just like a toy
No, love ain’t nothing
But a monkey on your back
Nothing but a monkey on your back
Nothing but a monkey on your back
Love ain’t nothing
