Lyrics The Monkey Song - Nitty Gritty Dirt Band

The Monkey Song

Now I wonder if where love’s involved
Did we improve as we evolved
Perhaps we’d fix a big mistake
By going wild, going ape
Here we go 'round the dry thistle
Monkey can climb but I can whistle
He can’t sing and I can’t dance
And the monkey don’t have to wear no pants
Here we go 'round the dry thistle
Monkey can climb but I can whistle
He can’t sing and I can’t dance
And the monkey don’t have to wear no pants
Here we go 'round the dry thistle
Monkey can climb but I can whistle
He can’t sing and I can’t dance
And the monkey don’t have to wear no pants
Here we go 'round the dry thistle
Monkey can climb but I can whistle
He can’t sing and I can’t dance
And the monkey don’t have to wear no pants
