Dave Matthews Band and Dave Matthews - Proudest Monkey (in album Live At Red Rocks 81595) Lyrics

Well, I used to live in a tree

I loved it there, but that was not enough for me

So I paved a road to the city

And left the rest of the monkeys



So when I leave the (???)

I am the Proudest Monkey that I know

Monkey see, monkey do

Monkey see, monkey do



When I walk, I walk so tall...

Not bent or doubled up

Like the other monkeys that I know...

Still I don't know if I have a soul

Or if Heaven's the place to go...

Or if Hell's where we burn...

Or if sinning's what we do...

Where do I know that I'm the smartest monkey...

That I know



Monkey see, monkey do,

Monkey see...



We are the proudest monkeys...

We are the proudest monkeys...

You and me are the proudest monkeys...

You and I are the proudest monkeys...



Monkey see, monkey do...

Monkey see, monkey do... (repeat as necessary)
