A7sus4 Well, I guess he's been messing around downtown
so sad to see the man losing ground
winding down behind closed doors
on all fours
Mama, don't you call him my name;
he can't hear you anymore
Even if he seems the same to you
that's a stranger to your door
Ask him what's he come here for
Oh my God, a monkey can move a man Send him to hell and home again With an empty hand in the afternoon shooting for the moon
It's halfway sick and it's halfway stoned He'd sure like to kick but he's too far gone so they wind him down with the methadone He's all on his own
But baby, don't you throw your love away I hate to seem unkind It's only that I understand the man that the monkey can leave behind I used to think he was a friend of mine
