Too much monkey business for me

Runnin' to-and-fro - hard workin' at the mill.
Never failed in the mail yet, come a rotten Bill!
Too much monkey business. Too much monkey business.
Too much monkey business for me to be involved in!

Salesman talkin' to me - tryin' to run me up a creek.
Says you can buy it, go on try it - you can pay me next
Week,
ahh!
Too much monkey business. Too much monkey business.
Too much monkey business for me to be involved in!

Blonde haired, good lookin' - tryin' to get me hooked.
Want me to marry - settle down - get a home - write a book!
Too much monkey business. Too much monkey business.
Too much monkey business for me to be involved in!

Same thing every day - gettin' up, goin' to school.
No need for me complainin' - my objection's overruled, ahh!
Too much monkey business. Too much monkey business.
Too much monkey business for me to be involved in!

Pay phone - something wrong - dime gone - will mail
Ought to sue the operator for telling me a tale - ahh!
Too much monkey business. Too much monkey business.
Too much monkey business for me to be involved in!

Been to Yokohama - been fightin' in the war.
Army bunk - Army chow - Army clothes - Army car, aah!
Too much monkey business. Too much monkey business.
Too much monkey business for me to be involved in!

Workin' in the fillin' station - too many tasks.
Wipe the windows - check the tires - check the oil - dollar
Gas!
Too much monkey business. Too much monkey business.
Don't want your botheration, get away, leave me!

TOO MUCH MONKEY BUSINESS FOR ME!!

Roll Over Beethovan... ChuckBerry

Another one from chuckberry m becoming fan of him :)

Lyrics:

Im gonna write a little letter,
Gonna mail it to my local dj.
Its a rockin rhythm record
I want my jockey to play.
Roll over beethoven, I gotta hear it again today.

You know, my temperatures risin
And the jukebox blows a fuse.
My hearts beatin rhythm
And my soul keeps on singin the blues.
Roll over beethoven and tell tschaikowsky the news.

I got the rockin pneumonia,
I need a shot of rhythm and blues.
I think Im rollin arthiritis
Sittin down by the rhythm review.
Roll over beethoven rockin in two by two.

Well, if you feel you like it
Go get your lover, then reel and rock it.
Roll it over and move on up just
A trifle further and reel and rock it,
Roll it over,
Roll over beethoven rockin in two by two.

Well, early in the mornin Im a-givin you a warnin
Dont you step on my blue suede shoes.
Hey diddle diddle, I am playin my fiddle,
Aint got nothin to lose.
Roll over beethoven and tell tschaikowsky the news.

You know she wiggles like a glow worm,
Dance like a spinnin top.
She got a crazy partner,
Oughta see em reel and rock.
Long as she got a dime the music will never stop.

Roll over beethoven,
Roll over beethoven,
Roll over beethoven,
Roll over beethoven,
Roll over beethoven and dig these rhythm and blues.


Sweet Little sixteen- Chuckberry

Me and my room mate has something very different and that is choice for music.  Came across this famous 50's song through him, and I thank him for making me listen this .. liking chuckberry a lot these days.. 

They're really rockin Boston 
In Pittsburgh, P. A. 
Deep in the heart of Texas 
And 'round the Frisco Bay 
All over St. Louis 
Way down in New Orleans 
All the Cats wanna dance with 
Sweet Little Sixteen 

Sweet Little Sixteen 
She's just got to have 
About half a million 
Framed autographs 
Her wallet's filled with pictures 
She gets 'em one by one 
She gets so excited 
Watch her look at her run 

Oh mommy mommy 
Please may I go 
It's such a sight to see 
Somebody steal the show 
Oh daddy daddy 
I beg of you 
Whisper to mommy 
It's all right with you 

Cause they'll be rockin on bandstand 
In Philadelphia P.A. 
Deep in the heart of Texas 
And 'round the Frisco Bay 
All over St. Louis 
Way Down in New Orleans 
All the Cats wanna dance with 
Sweet Little Sixteen 

Sweet Little Sixteen 
She's got the grown up blues 
Tight dress and lipstick 
She's sportin' high heal shoes 
Oh, but tomorrow morning 
She'll have to chang her trend 
And be sweet sixteen 
And back in class again 


Cause they'll be rockin on bandstand 
In Philadelphia P.A. 
Deep in the heart of Texas And 'round the Frisco Bay 
All over St. Louis Way Down in New Orleans 
All the Cats wanna dance with 
Sweet Little Sixteen
