Is That A Monkey You Got lyrics

Now it looks like a dog and it ain`t no cat
I`m just wondering what the world is that?

Is that a monkey you got? Is that a monkey you`ve got?
Is that some monkey you got, honey, he`s the ugliest thing in town

Now he`s red and he`s black and his feet is brown
He`s the worst looking thing that walks on the ground

Is that a monkey you got? Is that a monkey you`ve got?
Is that some monkey you got, honey, he`s the ugliest thing in town

Now you told me about your monkey and I don`t see why you did
When I come to your house you always got him hid

Is that a monkey you got? Is that a monkey you`ve got?
Is that some monkey you got, honey, he`s the ugliest thing in town

Now you keep him hidden and in the house
You must think he`ll cause trouble if you let him go out

Is that a monkey you got? Is that a monkey you`ve got?
Is that some monkey you got, honey, he`s the ugliest thing in town
