Blue Monk Lyrics – Mary Stallings
Singer: Mary Stallings
Title: Blue Monk
Goin’ alone, life is your own
But sometimes the cost is dear
Being complete, knowing defeat
Keeping on from year to year
It takes some doing
Monkery’s the blues you hear
Keeping on from year to year
Life is a school, ‘less you’re a fool
But the learning brings you pain
Knowing at once you’re just a dunce
Trial and error, loss and gain
It takes some doing
Monkery’s a slow, slow train
Trial and error, loss and gain
Finding your own place in the sun
Doesn’t come the easy way
Shallow and deep, nothing is cheap
Measured by the dues you pay
It takes some doin’
Monkery’s a blue highway
Measured by the dues you pay
Life is a school, ‘less you’re a fool
But the learning brings you pain
Knowing at once you’re just a dunce
Trial and error, loss and gain
It takes some doing
Monkery’s a slow, slow train
Trial and error, loss and gain
Sha-da-da-dwee-dwee-dwee-do

Boop bi-doo-po-dee-lee{?}-boo-n-do-doo

Finding your own place in the sun
Doesn’t come the easy way
Shallow and deep, nothing is cheap
Measured by the dues you pay
It takes some doin’
Monkery’s the blues you hear
Keeping on from year to year
