lyrics

Lets go monkey hunting boys
Gotta get this monkey off my back
And it’s been hanging over me
And there’s just no going back

There’s no going back
There’s no going back
There’s no going back
There’s no going back, back, back, back, back, back, back

Grab that monkey by the tail
Gonna whip us up a monkey stew
And if we spy a lion boys
We’ll take the monkey and the lion too

There’s no going back
There’s no going back
There’s no going back
There’s no going back, back, back, back, back, back, back

Lets go monkey hunting boys
Gotta get this monkey off my back
And it’s been hanging over me
And there’s just no going back

There’s no going back
There’s no going back
There’s no going back
There’s no going back, back, back, back, back, back, back

Well lets ask St John to help us boys
Old St John will know just want to do
Come on St John help us out
And maybe help us make a buck or two

There’s no going back
There’s no going back
There’s no going back
There’s no going back, back, back, back, back, back, back
