and I'll ask ya boy, don't you monkey round my widder when I'm gone

If you monkey round my widder I'm telling you the fact
my big white ghost will come sneeking back
and I'll haunt you boy
If you monkey round my widder when I'm gone

My honey has told me over and over again
there will be no more sparking after I check in

If you monkey round my widder I'm telling you true
some dark night I'll scare the hell out of you

Oh her cooking is good and her loving is fine
but when I leave this world she'll still be mine
and I'll ask ya boy not to monkey round my widder when I'm gone

If you monkey round my widder I'm telling you the fact

and I'll haunt you boy

one pretty woman with a lot of you men

If you monkey round my widder I'm telling you the fact
my big white ghost will come sneeking back
and I'll haunt you boy
If you monkey round my widder when I'm gone
I'll haunt you boy
If you monkey round my widder when I'm gone
