I'm A People - George Jones
Now if I was a monkey, a-workin' for a livin' I'd be a-gettin' instead of a-givin' A-hangin' by my tail, a-waitin' for the dinner bell Puttin' humans on Every day them fools rush in And lay down the cash and watch me grin I put 'em all on, I'd hum a little song An' watch 'em all go tee-hee But I spell a P, a little bitty E Sweet bop, bop, bop, sh-shoo, shoobie doobie doh, and a little round O Now you add another P, a big skinny L There's a-one more E an' you got a people that looks like me Now a monkey don't have to go down town An' ask for a job an' get turned down, I'm mad at me I could smash me 'Cause I'm a people Now, a monkey don't have to shoot an' speak All he do is scratch his fleas Oh me, what luxury But I'm a people Now I spell a P, a little bitty E Sweet bop, bop, bop, sh-shoo, shoobie doobie doh, and a little round O Now you add another P, a big skinny L There's a-one more E an' you got a creature that looks like me Now if someone knocked on my door today There'd be a little sign says, "gone away" Down to the zoo, diggin' you know who 'Cause I'm a people Now I spell a P, a little bitty E Sweet bop, bop, bop, sh-shoo, shoobie doobie doh, and a little round O Now you add another P, a big skinny L There's a-one more E an' you got a creature that looks like me
