Oh I took a wrong turn, it was the right turn
My turn to have me a ball
Boys at the shop told me just where to stop
If I wanted to play for it all
I didnt know Id find her on daytime tv
My whole world lies waiting behind door number three
I chose my apparel, I wore a beer barrel
And they rolled me to the very first row
I held a big sign that said, "kiss me Im a baker
And monty I sure need the dough"
Then I grabbed that sucker by the throat until he called on me
cause my whole world lies waiting behind door number three
And I dont want what jays got on his table
Or the box carol merrill points to on the floor
No Ill hold out just as long as I am able
Or until I can unlock that lucky door
Well, shes no big deal to most folk
But shes everything to me
cause my whole world lies waiting behind door number three
Oh monty, monty, monty, I am walkin down your hall
Got beat, lost my seat, but Im not a man to crawl
Though I didnt get rich, you son of a bitch
Ill be back just wait and see
cause my whole world lies waiting behind door number three
Yes my whole world lies waiting behind door number three
