"Mickey's Monkey" is a 1963 song recorded by the R&B group #theMiracles on #Motown Records' #Tamla label. It was written and produced by Motown's main songwriting team of #BrianHolland, #LamontDozier, and #EddieHolland, who later went on to write two more Miracles hit singles, the Top 40 "I Gotta Dance to Keep From Crying", and the Top 20 "(Come 'Round Here) I'm The One You Need". This was an unusual writing situation for the Miracles.

Baby, baby
I'm aware of where you go
Each time you leave my 🚪
I watch you 🚶🏾♂️ down the street
Knowing your other love you'll meet
But this time before you 🏃🏾 to her
Leaving me alone and hurt
Think it over🤔
After I've been good to you
Think it over🤔
After I've been sweet to you
STOP! In the name of love
Before you break my 💔
Think it over🤔
