Текст (слова) песни: David Crosby - Monkey and the Underdog

by David Crosby, Craig Doerge

Well I went out for my evenin` stroll
All along the boulevard
It`s familiar turf, from the hills
To the surf
I treat it like my front yard
Well I right away ran into
a girl I know.
She said "you gotta come with
me tonight, the word
is out that the underdog
and the monkey gonna finally fight."

Been fightin`...fightin`
fightin` just to stay alive
I`ve been fightin`...fightin`
Fightin` to get from
Four o`clock to five.

Now I`m not what you`d call
a violent man.
But the news brought a smile
to my face.
Cause the underdog is a
friend of mine.
I`d love to see him
Put that monkey in his place.
You may think I`m crazy
The odds are against the dog
you understand;
This monkey is as strong as
a gorilla.
He`d stretch a tire like
a rubber band.

But I`ve been fightin`...fightin`
fightin` just to stay alive
I`ve been fightin`...fightin`
Fightin` to get from
Four o`clock to five.

Now, he`s sneaky
and he`ll smile
Right at you, pretend
to like your boots
And all the while,
he`d be thinking
How to rip your soul
out by the roots.
When we got there
my old underdog.
He didn`t really look too goo, no
But when his eyes met mine
and he said
"I`ll kick his ass."
and I knew right then he would

I`ve been fightin`
I`ve been fightin`
Fightin` just to stay alive
I`ve been fightin`...fightin`
Fightin` to get from
Four o`clock to five.

Well now I don`t want
To bore you.
With a bunch of dialogue.
It`s not how much dog
is in the fight
It`s how much fight
is in the dog.

And I`ve been fightin`...oh fightin`
Fightin` just to stay alive
I`ve been fightin`...yeah fightin`
Fightin` to get from
Four o`clock to five.

I`ve been fightin`...oh fightin`
Fightin` just to stay alive
I`ve been fightin`...yeah fightin`
Fightin` to get from
Four o`clock to five.

I`ve been fightin`...oh fightin`
Fightin` just to stay alive
I`ve been fightin`...yeah fightin`
Fightin` to get from
Four o`clock to five.
