GRENADE TOSSING MONKEY

V1
Out on the line with a bottle of wine
Just to pass the days through
He saw something funky, it looked like a monkey
He didn’t know what to do 

V2
Well Eddy Frank, say he see something squirming
Might be a German too
Might be the weather, the heat or the letters
Getting to him too 

C
Lots of calling, bombs falling
Something else off too
A hooting, hollering, grenade tossing
Little old monkey too
(Ooh ah hoo, ooh ah hoo) 

V3
Little old Eddy, calm and steady wrote his papa too
“Well I killed four huns, shoot em and done”
But these were a little strange
They had tails and bananas, they were like little cannons
Throwing them grenades 

C
Lots of calling, bombs falling
Something else off too
A hooting, hollering, grenade tossing
Little old monkey too
(Ooh ah hoo, ooh ah hoo) 

V4
Well they’d go in the trenches
And make a little mischief too
They’d throw explosives, lay on their stomachs
A hooting and a hollering too 

C
Lots of calling, bombs falling
Something else off too
A hooting, hollering, grenade tossing
Little old monkey too 

End Tag
A little old monkey too
Oh a little old monkey too
Ah a little old monkey too
