The Monkey Song - Nitty Gritty Dirt Band

Now I wonder if where love’s involved

Did we improve as we evolved

Perhaps we’d fix a big mistake

By going wild, going ape

Here we go 'round the dry thistle

Monkey can climb but I can whistle

He can’t sing and I can’t dance

And the monkey don’t have to wear no pants

Here we go 'round the dry thistle

Monkey can climb but I can whistle

He can’t sing and I can’t dance

And the monkey don’t have to wear no pants

Here we go 'round the dry thistle

Monkey can climb but I can whistle

He can’t sing and I can’t dance

And the monkey don’t have to wear no pants

Here we go 'round the dry thistle

Monkey can climb but I can whistle

He can’t sing and I can’t dance

And the monkey don’t have to wear no pants
