Biography:
The Holy Modal Rounders was an American folk music group, originally the duo of Peter Stampfel and Steve Weber, who began performing together on the Lower East Side of New York City in the early 1960s. Their unique blend of folk music revival and psychedelia gave them a cult-like following from the late 1960s into the 1970s. For a time the group also included the playwright and actor Sam Shepard.
Stampfel explained the origin of the name in the webzine Perfect Sound Forever:

G C G
So now I'm leaving this world of sin
D G
One pretty woman with a lot of you men
Em
I'm telling you boys
C D G
Don't you monkey with my widow when I'm gone
I had my life, and I had my fun
I had more loving than you boys ever done
I'm telling you boys
Don't you monkey with my widow when I'm gone
No monkeyin'
My girl was created just to be my bride
No other man can keep her satisfied
I'm telling you boys
Don't you monkey with my widow when I'm gone
I know you can't wait until I'm dead
To try to drag her off to your waterbed
I'm telling you boys
Don't you monkey with my widow when I'm gone
She'll just throw you out, an' if she’s feeling bluer
She'll think about the times that I used to screw 'er
I'm telling you boys
Don't you monkey with my widow when I'm gone
Well, that girl's got class, and a temper, too
Well, she can make a monkey outta all o' you
I'm telling you boys
Don't you monkey with my widow when I'm gone
And if any o' you punks try to misbehave
I'll haunt your asses to an early grave
I'm telling you, telling you, telling you boys
Don't you monkey with my widow when I'm gone
'Cos I'm telling you, telling you, telling you boys
Don't you monkey with my widow when I'm gone
