YOU AND ME AND THE MONKEY MAKES THREE

You and Me and the Monkey Makes Three

Hey Troop! Wanta monkey?
Heck yeah lemme see.
What ya got for it?
I got a pistol,
A Chicom for free,
I guess you and me and
The monkey make three.

Why ya given up the monkey?
I’m goin’ home troop,
This country I’ll flee.
The monkey and me
Can’t get on the plane ya see.
Well heck take the pistol,
And the monkey’ll take me.

Now settle down little monkey
And stay in the bag,
‘Cause this chopper ride’s fun
It’s no kind of drag.
Bernie’s flyin’,
He flies with me
And he and me and you
Monkey make three.

Settle down little monkey
Just wait and see,
My best friend Bernie
And you and me
Will make three.

Head down,
Top’s a commin’,
He don’t like me.
And surely the monkey
And me he will see.


Hi Top, what’s that?
A monkey you see?
No dude, don’t you see,
There’s no monkey
Just Bernie and me.

I’m sad little monkey,
So sad you see?
Bernie ain’t commin’ back,
He’s was killed at three.

Let me cry little monkey
I’m so sad you see,
There’ll never be another
Bernie flyin’ with me.

Let me cry little monkey
Can’t you see?
Never again will
He and me and the monkey make three.
