There's a place right across town, whenever you're ready |
|
Where people gather 'round, whenever they're ready |
|
And then the music begins to play |
|
You feel a groove comin' on its way |
|
Are you ready (are you ready) |
|
Well, you get yours, cause-a I got mine |
|
For the Monkey Time (Monkey Time) |
|
(Monkey Time) |
|
Now the dance that the people do |
|
I don't know how it started |
|
All I know is that when the beat brings a feel |
|
It's so hard to get parted |
|
And then the music begins to play |
|
Automatically you're on your way |
|
Are you ready (are you ready) |
|
Well, you get yours, cause-a I got mine |
|
For the Monkey Time (Monkey Time) |
|
(Monkey Time) |
|
Do the Monkey, yeah (do the Monkey Time) |
|
Do the Monkey, yeah (do the Monkey Time) |
|
Ah-twist them hips (twist them hips) |
|
Let your backbone slip (let your backbone slip) |
|
Now move your feet (move your feet) |
|
Get on the beat (get on the beat) |
|
Are you ready (are you ready) |
|
Well, you get yours, cause-a I got mine |
|
For the Monkey Time (Monkey Time) |
|
(Monkey Time) |
|
Now the dance that the people do |
|
I don't know how it started |
|
All I know is that when the beat brings a feel |
|
It's so hard to get parted |
|
And then the music begins to play |
|
Automatically you're on your way |
|
Are you ready (are you ready) |
|
Well, you get yours, cause-a I got mine |
|
For the Monkey Time (Monkey Time) |
|
Ah, do the Monkey, yeah |
|
Give me a big strong line |
|
You're lookin' real fine |
