Sell My Monkey
by 
B.B. King 
recording of 1983 
from 
Blues 'n' Jazz (MCA MCAD-27119) 
Me and my baby 
Keeps falling out 
Let me tell you 
What it's all about 
She wanna sell my monkey 
She wanna sell my monkey 
She wanna sell my monkey 
But that'll never do 
It used to be hers 
But she gave it to me 
Why she wanna sell him 
I just can't see 
She wanna sell my monkey 
She wanna sell my monkey 
She wanna sell my monkey 
But that'll never do 
She wanna know 
Why we don't get along 
She don't realize 
She's doing me wrong 
She wanna sell my monkey 
She wanna sell my monkey 
She wanna sell my monkey 
But that'll never do 
I have to hang around 
Every day and night 
I can't trust the girl 
Out of my sight 
She wanna sell my monkey 
She wanna sell my monkey 
She wanna sell my monkey 
But that'll never do
