Tweeter and the Monkey Man were hard up for cash
G C G
They stayed up all night selling cocaine and hash
G C G
To the boys in the barrooms, the men in the street
G C G
They didn't know what they were in for, but they had to compete
G C G
Tweeter was a Monkey Man, he was skinny and tall
G C G
He'd take a hit of the stuff, then he'd go for it all
G C G
But the Monkey Man's got the blues, and it ain't no joke
G C G
He'd sell it for a penny, but he would never choke
G C G
The Monkey Man said, "Tweeter, don't you worry 'bout the cash"
G C G
"We'll get ourselves a fortune, we'll make it last"
G C G
But the cops were on their tail, they were closing in fast
G C G
Tweeter and the Monkey Man knew it wouldn't last
G C G
Tweeter and the Monkey Man, they were living in a dream
G C G
But the dream was getting darker, nothing's as it seems
G C G
The Monkey Man said, "Tweeter, don't you worry 'bout a thing"
G C G
"We'll keep on living, we'll do our own thing"
