One Monkey Don't Stop No Show Songtext
von Bobby Rush

You know, I came home yesterday from work
Looked tired, disgusted
Oh, I had a few problems in my life
I came home from work, ran straight to my wife

I told her I said, "Baby, I′ma leave you"
Well, I said that many times before
But I've never reached the front door
Most of the time when I said that
She would wrap me and ask me

Bobby, please don′t leave me
This time she was in the kitchen cooking
She acts like I was the last thing on her mind
I pack my little thing and headed to the door
When I reached the door, she stopped me said, "Bobby
Listen, I got something I wanna tell you
Sit your bag down a minute," she said


I don't want you to leave me
But I can't make you stay
She said, "If my man have to leave me
He gon′ leave me anyway"

She said, "Here′s one thing I want you to know
Before you walk out the door"
She said, "One monkey don't stop no show"
She said, "One monkey don′t stop no show"

She said, "If you leave me
You know it gon' break my heat in two"
She said, "I′ll find me somebody else
And I'll get over loosing you"

She said, "Here′s one thing I want you to know
Before you walk out of the door
One monkey don't stop no show"
She said, "One monkey don't stop no show"

She said, "I′ve been fishing since I was 22
But I can still catch another fish like I caught you"
She said, "I haven′t been the honey, but I still know the woods
I haven't shot a gun for a while, but my gun still shoots good"


She said, "Here′s one thing I want you to know"
She said, "One monkey don't stop no show"
She said, "One monkey don′t stop no show"
She said -

She said, "I'm gonna miss you baby
Like any woman miss her love
But you ain′t the only man in the whole round world"
She said, "If you gon' leave me, leave me quick
'Cause you ain′t the only lumberjack that carries a big stick"

One monkey don′t stop no show
One monkey don't stop no show
One monkey ha, don′t stop no show
She said, "One monkey don't stop no show?

She said, "Love me, or leave me
Either one you won′t leave"
She said, "Remember one thing
When you move, you loose"

She said, "One monkey don't stop no show
One monkey wow, don′t stop no show"
She said, "One monkey don't stop no show
One monkey don't stop no show"
She said, "One monkey don′t stop no show"
She said, "One monkey sure, don′t stop no show"

She said, "Love me, leave me you're the one who wanna leave
Just remember when you leave me
When you move, you loose"
She said, "One monkey don′t stop no show
One monkey wow don't stop no show"
