Lyrics

When I done quit hollerin' baby, I believe I'll shake 'em on down
Get my babe, won't be late, you know by that I mean seconds late
Ah, must I holler, must I shake 'em on down
Well I've been mistreated, babe, I believe I'll shake 'em on down
Well I ain't no monkey. I can't climb no tree
No brown skin woman gonna make no monkey out of me
I ain't no monkey, sure can't climb no tree
I been mistreated babe I believe I'll shake 'em on down
Well I've been mistreated babe I believe I'll shake 'em on down

Listen mama, put on your mornin' gown'
Put in your nightshirt mama we gonna shake 'em down
Must I holler? must I shake 'em on down?

Gave my baby a twenty dollar bill
If that don't get her, sure my shot, shot, shot-gun will
Yeah, I gave my baby a twenty dollar bill
Well, if that don't get that woman, I'm sure my shot-gun will
I'm gonna shoot you now
