Lyrics
Monkey Dance
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
This is a beautiful story about our past
The rich past, the tapestry of history
In 1814 we took a little trip
Along with Colonel Jackson down the mighty Mississip'
We took a little bacon and we took a little beans
Dance the monkey dance, the monkey dance
