Oh I can't stand to leave that girl alone And if I explained it till the cows came home You'll never understand how I feel inside Oh so you better get her off my back Let the monkey ride Oh let the monkey ride They say you better let her go, she's no good for you Oh but I couldn't cut her loose if I wanted to If the truth be told, I never tried Oh so you better get her off my back Let the monkey ride Oh let the monkey ride Looks to me she's got me hooked, rest a**ured there ain't no cure I need a soul where the me I know, can't be denied Don't you know she's got a hold of my heart No but don't wait around for us to drift apart Cause I can't get enough to be satisfied Oh so you better get her off my back Let the monkey ride Oh let the monkey ride Cause I can't get enough to be satisfied Oh so you better get her off my back Let the monkey ride Oh let the monkey ride
