Album: Complete Recorded Works in Chronological Order, Vol. 2: 1924-1925

I'm goin' to Chicago, sorry but I can't take you
Yes I'm goin' to Chicago, sorry but I can't take you
Cause there's nothin' on State Street, that a monkey man can do

I've got a monkey man here, a monkey man over there (2x)
If monkey men were money, I'd be a Chicago millionaire

I've got fourteen men now, I only want one more
I've got fourteen men now, and I only want one more
As soon as I can get one, I'll let these fourteen go

Now I'm goin' tell you, like the day goes so must you(2x)
When you nobody no money, mama can no usin' you

I can take my monkey men, and stand them all in line(2x)
Anybody can count them, one two three four five six seven eight times
