Funky Monkey Blues

Written by Paul Dougherty

It’s 6 in the morning, and my head’s still on the floor
It’s 6 in the morning, and my head’s still on the floor
I gotta get going, but I just can’t reach the door

The sun is rising, but I still don’t know your name
The sun is rising, but I still don’t know your name
Well I’m going down fast, but I just can’t stand the pain

Ch
I do the funky monkey every time I look at you
I do the funky monkey to that rock, roll, rhythm and blues
Well I cry at night, like a lone wolf howlin' at the moon

Work is sure hard when you feel this way
Work is sure hard when you feel this way
I feel so low down, gonna be buried underneath my grave

Ain’t gonna get out of this alive, there’s nothing you can do
Ain’t gonna get out of this alive, there’s nothing you can do
You might kill yourself, but it’s better than it killin' you
