They prosecuted some poor sucker in these United States
For teachin' that man descended from the apes
            Fm
They coulda settle that case without a fuss or fight
                  Cm
If they'd seen me chasin' you sugar
 
Thru the jungle last night
       G7
They'd called in that jury and a one two three said
      Cm
'Part man part monkey, definitely'

Well the church bell rings from the corner steeple
Man in a monkey suit swears he'll do no evil
       Fm
Offers his lover's prayer but his soul lies
Cm
Dark and driftin and unsatisfied
    G7
Well hey bartender tell me what'd ya see
     Cm
Part man part monkey looks like to me
         Fm
Well the night is dark the moon is full
    Cm
The flowers of romance exert their pull
   Fm
We talk a while my fingers slip
    G7
I'm hard and cracking like a whip

Well did God make man in a breath of holy fire
Or did he crawl on up out of the muck and mire
         Fm
Well the man on the street believes what the bible tells him so
            Cm
But you can ask me mister because I know
          G7
Tell them soul-suckin' preachers to come on down and see
     Cm
Part man part monkey, baby that's me
