Lyrics for The Monkey Man

I see him when I'm dreaming His teeth are white and bare He's riding on a stallion The wind is in his hair If he were made of china He's have a special stand Beside my china ponies I love the monkey man I wake up every morning And smell his golden hair He stands outside my window And watches me with care He smiles at all my ponies And dances when he can I'll look for him tomorrow I love the monkey man Monkey man Monkey man Monkey man Monkey man
