In the hazy light I see
Lonely croak, dark green dreams
I got no paddle and I got no shoes
I'm solo in a raw hide canoe
Hundreds of thoes little bug eyes
Them drooly running glassy eyes
Smiling through the foggy soup
I crack a grin and laugh in tune

I would love to float on
Monkey River

Sad lip hang out on a limb
Purple Paul pluckn a guitar
All string broke except for two
Careful chimp
Caress that bass
Water's only shallow deep
Monkey's dip into the river
Black and blue moon light up the leaves
Cypress branches chuckle and shiver

I would love to float on
Monkey River

Tiny fingers hold my hope
Felling full of water and holes
Look like killers but they mean no harm
I know them all my brothers.....

An on the last soft oxbow
Monkey's wave goodbye
Patch my boat with chewing gum
This purple haze is easy on my

I'd love to float on Monkey River
