You know I got a letter from a friend of mine
In Newcastle-Upon-a`Tyne the other day
He said to me "Eric I heard you`ve been havin` some trouble down in the smoke with the girls"
He said "You wanna catch that flyin` Scotsman back up here to Newcastle,
`Cause we`ve got enough females to go around up here
And I can figure you can find yourself a little somethin`
And because people around here don`t go away stealin` each others loved ones away from one another,
Like they do down there in the smoke"
He also said in the letter that, ah,
Things don`t happen like that here on Tyne
And I believed every word he said, now
Things don`t happen like that here on Tyne
One more thing he told me now
Things don`t happen like that here on Tyne
He said to me babe
Things don`t happen like that here on Tyne
He said, all right, all right
So I`m sayin` to you who are listen`…
If you`ve been unlucky in love
And you`ve lost somebody love
And you hear a voice that comes to you in the middle of the night and says…
It says I want you to get on up…
Listen to me,
I want you to get on up and find yourself another one
If your havin` breakfast one morning and out from behind the teapot a little voice says,
Listen, Hey! I want you to get on up now
If your out in the mornin` on your job
and a voice come to you on your job and says,
Get up! Get Up!
And you know its not the foreman
Its a little voice that says…
You wanna get up and walk ...(?) women
Go on and find yourself somebody
That`s what you`d better do.
Because I`ll tell you one thing
There`s one thing I found out
One thing I found out
Took me a long time to find it out
Yeah…it took me a long time to find out
But I,….think I got it now
Oh yeah..
One monkey don`t stop no show
Yes, its true baby
One monkey don`t stop no show
Don`t let one monkey stop up your show
One monkey don`t stop no show
One monkey don`t stop no show
