Versuri Tweeter And The Monkey Man
Tweeter and the Monkey Man were hard up for cash
They stayed up all night selling cocaine and hash
To an undercover cop who had a sister named Jan
For reasons unexplained she loved the Monkey Man
Tweeter was a boy scout 'fore she went to Vietnam
And found out the hard way, nobody gives a damn
They knew that they found freedom just across the
Jersey line
So they hopped into a stolen car, took Highway 99
And the walls came down
All the way to hell
Never saw them when they're standing
Never saw them when they fell
The undercover cop never liked the Monkey Man
Even back in childhood he wanted to see him in
the can
Jan got married at fourteen to a racketeer named
Bill
She mad secret calls to the Monkey Man from a
mansion on the hill
It was out on Thunder Road, Tweeter at the wheel
They crashed into paradise, they could hear them
tires squeal
The undercover cop pulled up and said Everyone of
you's a liar
If you don't surrender now it's gonna go down the
wire
And the walls came down
All the way to hell
Never saw them when they're standing
Never saw them when they fell
An ambulance rolled up, a state-trooper close
behind
Tweeter took his gun away and messed up his mind
The undercover cop was left tied up to a tree
Near the souvenir stand, by the old abandoned
factory
Next day the undercover cop was hot in pursuit
He was taking the whole thing personal, he did'nt
care about the loot
Jan had told him many times It was you to me who
taught
In Jersey anythings legal, as long as you don't
get caught
And the walls came down
All the way to hell
Never saw them when they're standing
Never saw them when they fell
Some place by Rahwey Prison they ran out of gas
The undercover cop had cornered the, said
Boy you didn't think this could last?
Jan jumped out of bed, said, There's someplace I
gotta go
She took the gun out of the drawer, said, It's
best that you don't know
The undercover cop was found face down in a field
The Monkey Man was on the river bridge, using
Tweeter as a shield
Jan said to the Monkey Man I'm not fooled by
Tweeter's curl
I knew him long before he became a Jersey Girl
And the walls came down
All the way to hell
Never saw them when they're standing
Never saw them when they fell
Now the town of Jersey City is quieting down
again
I'm sitting in a gambling club called the Lion's
Den
The TV set was blown up, every bit of it is gone
Ever since the nightly news showed that the
Monkey Man was on
I guess I'll go to Florida and get myself some
sun
There aint no more opportunity here, everything's
been done
Sometimes I think of Tweeter, sometimes I think
of Jan
Sometimes I don't think about nothing but the
Monkey Man
And the walls came down
All the way to hell
Never saw them when they're standing
Never saw them when they fell
