Verse 1
Now (D major) when (G major) (D major) the buzzard
took the monkey
for a ride in the air,
said the eagle to the monkey,
what you doin' up here?
Said the monkey to the eagle,
I know the scope,
I done rode this (G major) buz (D major)
zard's back before.
I'm not kid (G major) ding,
you (D major) don't have to worry about me, (G major)
Because I'm going stay right
on this brother's back
until he puts me back in the tree. (D major) (G major) (D major) (G major)

Well, (G major) the (D major) buzzard took a nosedive,
started quite a frown
The monkey looked around
and began to frown
(E flat major) The monkey threw (D major) his tail
around the buzzard's neck
And (E flat major) said, (D major) I'm sorry, dad,
it ain't gonna be like that
I'm not kidding,
(F major) (G major) I ain't gonna let you do that (B flat major) to me
(Ddim) I'm (B flat major) (D major) (G major) gonna squeeze your neck,
dad,
until you
me back in the tree
(D major)

You can fly (G major) on (D major) as soon as

You're (G major) such a dirty bug,
