One Monkey Don’t Stop No Show by Bette Midler
My baby jumped up this morning
Sat on the side of the bed.
He said “I’m leaving you baby.”
And this is just what I said.
I said “I can’t make you stay if you want to go
But it’s high time baby that you should know
One monkey don’t stop no show.
One monkey don’t stop no show.
So if you still wanna go go ahead
And I mean every word I said.”
My baby thought I was jivin’
And he went right out the door.
He left me about three in the morning.
I got me a man at four.
Some women cry when their men bleed them
Dry long and slow
But I found out somethin’ a long time ago.

One monkey don’t stop no show.
One monkey don’t stop no show.
So if he gets too big for his pants
You better spring that new one and give him a chance.
I used to be chicken hearted;
Cry when he’d walk out the door
’cause I was just young and stupid.
Ha! Ain’t like that no more.
‘Cause I had a hard way to go
But I learned the score.
And I’m here to tell you
And I should know
One monkey don’t stop no show.
One monkey don’t stop no show.
And let him do anything he choose.
There’s a million men who can fill his shoes.
One monkey don’t stop no show.
One monkey don’t stop no show.
One monkey don’t stop no show.
You can tell him I told you so.
