They prosecuted Cmsome poor sucker in these United States
For teachin' that man descended from the apes
They coulda Fmsettled that case without a fuss or fight
If they'd seen me Cmchasin' you, sugar, through the jungle last night
They'd G7called in that jury and-a one, two, three, said,
"Part Cmman, part monkey, definitely"

Well the Cmchurch bell rings from the corner steeple
Man in a monkey suit, swears he'll do no evil
Offers Fmhis lover's prayer, but his soul lies
CmDark and driftin', and unsatisfied
Well G7hey, bartender, tell me what do ya see
Part Cmman, part monkey, looks like to me
CmCmCmG7
Well, the Fmnight is dark, the moon is full
The Cmflowers of romance exert their pull
We Fmtalk awhile, my fingers slip
I'm G7hard and crackling like a whip

Well did CmGod make man in a breath of holy fire
Or did he crawl on up out of the muck and mire
Well the Fmman on the street believes what the bible tells him so
But you can Cmask me, mister, because I know
Tell them G7soul-suckin' preachers to come on down and see
Part Cmman, part monkey, baby, that's me
