[Verse 1]
There's a monkey in the jungle named Koko Joe
The coolest little monkey that you ever did know
You'd oughta see him dance, it's the funniest thing
Change your bounce to the monkey swing

[Chorus]
Yeah, Koko Joe
Let me tell you 'bout Koko Joe
Oh, oh, oh
Koko Joe
The coolest little monkey in town

[Verse 2]
Koko, that monkey, he's no square ape
He wears Ivy Leaguers with a crazy drape
Don't wear a tail like the other monkeys do
Trimmed down suede and he dyed it blue

[Chorus]
Yeah, Koko Joe
Let me tell you 'bout Koko Joe
Oh, oh, oh
Koko Joe
The coolest little monkey in town

[Verse 3]
Yeah, Koko, that monkey, really wins the chicks
Got arms on a prize that really clicks, yeah
Likes to talk about love like the other monkeys do
He said, "Listen here, people, now, later for you"

[Chorus]
Yeah, Koko Joe
Let me tell you 'bout Koko Joe
Oh, oh, oh
Koko Joe
The coolest little monkey in town

[Interlude]
Aw here now
Come on now
Yeah, yeah
Woo-hoo!

[Verse 3]
Yeah, Koko, that monkey, really wins the chicks
Got arms on a prize that really clicks, yeah
Likes to talk about love like the other monkeys do
He said, "Listen here, people, now, later for you"

[Chorus]
Yeah, Koko Joe
Let me tell you 'bout Koko Joe
Oh, oh, oh
Koko Joe
The coolest little monkey in town

[Outro]
Yeah, Koko Joe

The Righteous Brothers were a musical duo of Bill Medley and Bobby Hatfield, hailing from Orange County, California. They were originally members of The Paramours but began performing as a duo in 1962 after breaking off from the group.

Their first hit track was “You’ve Lost That Lovin' Feelin” but they released many other hits during their career.

The duo was active through the 1960s and 70s, and after a long split, they reunited in 1981 and performed up until Hatfield’s death in 2003. In 2016, Medley reformed the group with Bucky Heard.
