Sell My Monkey
by B.B. King recording of 1983 from Blues 'n' Jazz (MCA MCAD-27119) Me and my baby Keeps falling out Let me tell you What it's all about She wanna sell my monkey She wanna sell my monkey She wanna sell my monkey But that'll never do It used to be hers But she gave it to me Why she wanna sell him I just can't see She wanna sell my monkey She wanna sell my monkey She wanna sell my monkey But that'll never do She wanna know Why we don't get along She don't realize She's doing me wrong She wanna sell my monkey She wanna sell my monkey She wanna sell my monkey But that'll never do I have to hang around Every day and night I can't trust the girl Out of my sight She wanna sell my monkey She wanna sell my monkey She wanna sell my monkey But that'll never do
