George Jones - I'm A People Lyrics
Now if I was a monkey, a-workin' for a livin',I'd be a-gettin' instead of a-givin'.A-hangin' by my tail, a-waitin' for the dinner bell,Puttin' humans on.Every day them fools rush in,And lay down the cash and watch me grinI put 'em all on, I'd hum a little song,An' watch 'em all go tee-hee.But I spell a P, a little bitty E.Sweet bop, bop, bop, sh-shoo, shoobie doobie doh,In a little round O.Now you add another P, a big skinny L,There's a-one more E,An' you got a people that looks like, me.Now a monkey don't have to go down town,An' ask for a job an' gettin' turned down.I'm mad at me, I could smash me,'Cause I am a people.--- Instrumental ---Now, a monkey don't have to shoot an' speak,All he do is scratch his fleasOh, me, what luxury.But I'm a people.Now I spell a P, a little bitty E.Sweet bop, bop, bop, a-shoo, shoobie doobie doh,In a little round O.Now you add another P, a big skinny L,There's a-one more E,An' you got a creature that looks like, me.Now if anyone knocked on my door today,There'd be a little sign says: Gone away.Down to the zoo, diggin' you know who,'Cause I'm a people.Now I spell a P, a little bitty E.Sweet bop, bop, bop, sh-shoo, shoobie doobie doh,In a little round O.Now you add another P, a big skinny L,There's a-one more E,An' you got a creature that looks like, me...
