One Mondkey Don't Stop No Show Lyrics

My baby jumped up this morning

Sat on the side of the bed

He said "I'm leaving you, baby"

And this is just what I said

I said, "I can't make you stay

If you want to go" 

But it's high time baby

That you should know

One monkey don't stop no show

One monkey don't stop no show

So if you still wanna go, go ahead

And I mean every word I said

My baby though I was jivin'

And he went right out the door

He left me about three in the morning

I got me a man at four

Some women cry when their men bleed them

Dry, long and slow

But I found out something a long time ago

One monkey don't stop no show

One monkey don't stop no show

So if he gets too big for his pants

You better spring that new one and give him a chance

I used to be chicken hearted

Cry when he'd walk out the door

'Cause I was just young and stupid

Ha! Aint' like that no more

'Cause I had a hard way to go 

But I learned the score

And I'm here to tell you

And I should know

One monkey don't stop no show

One monkey don't stop no show

One monkey don't stop no show 

You can tell him I told you so
