Monty Got A Raw Deal |
| Monty, this seems strange to me The movies had that movie thing |
| But nonsense has a welcome ring |
| And heroes don’t come easy |
| Now nonsense isn’t new to me |
| I know my head, I know my feet |
| But mischief knocked me in the knees |
| I said, just let go, just let go I saw the ocean meet the man |
| I saw you buried in the sand |
| A friend was there to hold your hand |
| I said, walk on by So, I went walking through the street |
| I saw you strung up in a tree |
| A woman knelt there said to me |
| I said, hold your tongue, man, hold your tongue |
| You don’t owe me anything |
| You don’t want this sympathy |
| Don’t you waste your breath |
| (Don't waste your breath) |
| For the silver screen |
| That nonsense doesn’t mean a thing |
| They tried to bust you in a sting |
| But virtue isn’t everything |
| So, don’t waste time |
| Now, here’s a rhyme that you can steal |
| Put this on your reel to reel, mischief threw a rotten deal |
| Monty’s laying low, man, he is laying low |
| Just let go, y’all, just let go You don’t owe me anything |
| You don’t want this sympathy |
| (Waste your breath) |
| Don’t you waste your breath |
| (Don't waste your breath) |
| Monty, this seems strange to me |
