[Verse 1]
You wanna get rich, you got to get out and dig
You want long hair, go buy yourself a wig
[Chorus]
Please believe me, gonna tell it to you slow
It's a real true saying: one monkey won't stop no show
[Verse 2]
You can live in the country, you can come to town
What goes up is bound to come down
[Chorus]
Please believe me, gonna tell it to you slow
Well, pick up on what I'm saying, one monkey won't stop no show
[Verse 3]
You can travel by bus, you can come by train
Travel by thumb but you will get there just the same
[Chorus]
Please believe me, gonna tell it to you slow
Yeah, dig what I'm saying, one money won't stop no show
[Verse 4]
You don't have to be rich now to have plenty friends
Keep some cash on hand, it will pay off in the end
[Chorus]
Please believe me, gonna tell it
Well, pick up on what I'm saying, one monkey won't stop no show
