Them Kinda Monkeys Can't Swing

Everywhere has a wheeler an' dealer
Raised in the back streets of town
Everywhere has a spieler who's a clown

Every haunt has a hustler an' bustler
Born with the tongue of a snake
Every haunt has a muscler on the make

And them kinda monkeys can't swing
And them birdies can't sing
If them pigs could fly maybe
They'd fly away from me
They'd fly away from me

Everywhere has a ducker an'diver
Doin' his best to impress
Everywhere has a sciver in a mess,yeah

Every place has a joker at poker
Born with a marked deck of cards
Every place has a smoker in the yards

And them kinda monkeys can't swing
And then birdies can't sing
If them pigs could fly maybe
They'd fly away from me
They'd fly away from me

And them kinda monkeys can't swing
And them birdies can't sing
If them pigs could fly maybe
They'd fly away from me
They'd fly away from me
