monkey and the engineer
the grateful dead
G thing A7 D7 G
G C G
once upon a time there was an engineer
A7 D7
drove a locomotive both far and near
G C
accompanied by a monkey who would sit on his stool
G A7 D7 G
watching everything the engineer would move
G C G
one day the engineer wanted a bite to eat
A7 D7
he left the monkey sittin’ on the driver’s seat
G C
the monkey pulled the throttle , locomotive jumped the gun
G A7 D7 G
and did ninety miles an hour down the main line run
G C G
big locomotive right on time
A7 D7
big locomotive comin’ down the line
G C
big locomotive number ninety – nine
G A7 D7 G
left the engineer with a worried mind
G thing A7 D7 G
the engineer called up the dispatcher on the phone
tell him all about his locomotive was gone
get on the wire , switch operator to write
cause the monkey’s got the main line sewed up tight
switch operator got the message on time
said , there’s a northbound livin’ on the same main line
open up the switch , i’m gonna let her through the hole
cause the monkey’s got the locomotive under control
big locomotive right on time
big locomotive comin’ down the line
big locomotive number ninety – nine
left the engineer with a worried mind
