Monkey Man (Remastered 2019) Songtext
von The Rolling Stones

I′m a fleabit peanut monkey
All my friends are junkies
That's not really true

I′m a cold Italian pizza
I could use a lemon squeezer
What you do?

But I've been bit and I've been tossed around
By every she-rat in this town
Have you, babe?

Well, I am just a monkey man
I′m glad you are a monkey woman too

I was bitten by a boar
I was gouged and I was gored
But I pulled on through

Yes, I′m a sack of broken eggs
I always have an unmade bed
Don't you?


Well, I hope we′re not too messianic
Or a trifle too satanic
We love to play the blues

Well, I am just a monkey man
I'm glad you are a monkey woman too (monkey)
(Monkey woman too, babe)

I′m a monkey
I'm a monkey
I′m a monkey, babe
I'm a monkey, babe

I'm a monkey
I′m a monkey
I′m a monkey
I'm a monkey

M-m-m-m-monkey
M-m-m-m-monkey
I′m a m-m-m-m-monkey
M-m-m-m-m-m-monkey
Ah, I'm a monkey
