The Monkey And The Baboon - Eddie Bond

The Monkey And The Baboon

Eddie Bond

(Eddie Bond, DIPLOMAT 8566, 1964)

I saw a monkey and a baboon sittin' in the grass
Monkey stuck his hand in the baboon's pocket
He got him a dollar and a half
Ain't he a dog, a dirty dog
He's a mean old dirty low down shaggy dog

Well, I'm walkin' down mainstreet, lookin' down Beale
Lookin' for my woman and they call her Lucille
Ain't she a dog, a dirty dog
She's a mean old dirty low down shaggy dog

Well, I thought I saw my baby down at barroom Sam's
Looked like she was cuttin' out with that browneyed handsome man
Ain't she a dog, a dirty dog
She's a mean old dirty low down shaggy dog

Well, it's early in the morning, about sunrise
Lookin' for my baby with tears in her eyes
Ain't she a dog, a dirty dog
She's a mean old dirty low down shaggy dog

Ah-da-da, dee-dee, dee-dee, dee-dee
Dee-dee, dee, dee, dee
