The Monkey Time Lyrics - Major Lance

There's a place right across town, whenever you're ready 

Where people gather 'round, whenever they're ready 

And then the music begins to play 

You feel a groove comin' on its way 

Are you ready (are you ready) 

Well, you get yours, cause-a I got mine 

For the Monkey Time (Monkey Time) 

(Monkey Time) 

Now the dance that the people do, I don't know how it started 

All I know is that when the beat brings a feel 

It's so hard to get parted 

And then the music begins to play 

Automatically you're on your way 

Are you ready (are you ready) 

Well, you get yours, cause-a I got mine 

For the Monkey Time (Monkey Time) 

(Monkey Time) 

Do the Monkey, yeah (do the Monkey Time) 

Do the Monkey, yeah (do the Monkey Time) 

Ah-twist them hips (twist them hips) 

Let your backbone slip (let your backbone slip) 

Now move your feet (move your feet) 

Get on the beat (get on the beat) 

Are you ready (are you ready) 

Well, you get yours, cause-a I got mine 

For the Monkey Time (Monkey Time) 

(Monkey Time) 

Now the dance that the people do, I don't know how it started 

All I know is that when the beat brings a feel 

It's so hard to get parted 

And then the music begins to play 

Automatically you're on your way 

Are you ready (are you ready) 

Well, you get yours, cause-a I got mine 

For the Monkey Time (Monkey Time) 

Ah, do the Monkey, yeah 

Give me a big strong line 

You're lookin' real fine
