The Holy Modal Rounders
Jealous Daddy’s Death Song
[Verse 1]
So now I'm leavin' this world of sin
One pretty women with a lot of you men
I'm tellin' you, boys
Don't you monkey with my widow when I'm gone

[Verse 2]
I had my life and I had my fun
I had more lovin' than you boys ever done
I'm tellin' you, boys
Don't you monkey with my widow when I'm gone, no monkeyin'

[Verse 3]
My girl was created just to be my bride
And no other man could keep her satisfied
I'm tellin' you, boys
Don't you monkey with my widow when I'm gone

[Verse 4]
I know you can't wait until I'm dead
To try to drag her off to your waterbed
I'm tellin' you, boys
Don't you monkey with my widow when I'm gone

[Verse 5]
She'll just throw you out, and if she's feelin' blue
She'll just think of the times that I used to screw her
And I'm tellin' you, boys
Don't you monkey with my widow when I'm gone
[Verse 6]
Well, that girl's got class, and a temper too
She can make a monkey out of all of you
I'm tellin' you, boys
Don't you monkey with my widow when I'm gone

[Verse 7]
And if any you punks try to misbehave
I'll haunt your asses to an early grave
I'm tellin' you, boys
Don't you monkey with my widow when I'm gone

[Refrain]
'Cause I'm tellin' you, boys
Don't you monkey with my widow when I'm gone
