                Cm 
They prosecuted some poor sucker in these United States 

For teachin' that man descended from the apes 
            Fm 
They coulda settled that case without a fuss or fight 
                  Cm 
If they'd seen me chasin' you, sugar, through the jungle last night 
       G7 
They'd called in that jury and-a one, two, three, said, 
      Cm 
'Part man, part monkey, definitely'

         Cm 
Well the church bell rings from the corner steeple 

Man in a monkey suit, swears he'll do no evil 
       Fm 
Offers his lover's prayer, but his soul lies 
Cm 
Dark and driftin', and unsatisfied 
     G7 
Well hey, bartender, tell me what do ya see 
     Cm 
Part man, part monkey, looks like to me 

| Cm | Cm | Cm | G7 | 

          Fm 
Well, the night is dark, the moon is full 
    Cm 
The flowers of romance exert their pull 
   Fm 
We talk awhile, my fingers slip 
    G7 
I'm hard and crackling like a whip

         Cm 
Well did God make man in a breath of holy fire 

Or did he crawl on up out of the muck and mire 
         Fm 
Well the man on the street believes what the bible tells him so 
            Cm 
But you can ask me, mister, because I know 
          G7 
Tell them soul-suckin' preachers to come on down and see 
     Cm 
Part man, part monkey, baby, that's me
