Jimmy Buffett - Jolly Mon Sing lyrics
[Jimmy Buffett - Jolly Mon Sing lyrics]
There is a tale that the island people tell
Don't care if it is true
'cause I love it so well
Jolly Mon sing for his supper every night
The people fed him well 'cause
He treated them so right
Oh oh oh oh, Jolly Mon sing
Oh oh oh oh, make Orion ring
And they wanted him to sing on
The island near and far
He always found his way by Orion, lucky star
He'd tell them of their joys
He'd tell them of their woes
They loved to see him come
They'd hate to see him go
Oh oh oh oh, Jolly Mon sing
Oh oh oh oh, make the music ring
He was makin' his way home on
A dark and stormy night
When he heard a cry for help
He saw a flashin' light
When he reached the other boat
And offered them a hand they said
"Give us all your cargo" as
They took a pirate stand
Oh oh oh oh, Jolly Mon sing
Oh oh oh oh, give them everything
"Jolly Mon, it's over
Sing your last song very well"
They tossed him in the ocean
'cause their hearts were made in hell
Came along a dolphin, he said
"Jolly Mon hello!
I've always loved your singing, climb aboard
Don't let go"
Oh oh oh oh, Jolly Mon sing
Oh oh oh oh, make the oceans ring
The night was filled with magic
They bid the sea goodbye
They swam into the heavens
They stayed up in the sky
And all the island people
When they wish upon a star
See the dolphin and the Jolly Mon
Who tell them where they are
Oh oh oh oh, Jolly Mon sing
Oh oh oh oh, make the heavens ring
Oh oh oh oh, Jolly Mon sing
Oh oh oh oh, make the magic ring
Oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh, Jolly Mon sing
Don't care if it is true
'cause I love it so well
Jolly Mon sing for his supper every night
The people fed him well 'cause
He treated them so right
Oh oh oh oh, Jolly Mon sing
Oh oh oh oh, make Orion ring
And they wanted him to sing on
The island near and far
He always found his way by Orion, lucky star
He'd tell them of their joys
He'd tell them of their woes
They loved to see him come
They'd hate to see him go
Oh oh oh oh, Jolly Mon sing
Oh oh oh oh, make the music ring
He was makin' his way home on
A dark and stormy night
When he heard a cry for help
He saw a flashin' light
When he reached the other boat
And offered them a hand they said
"Give us all your cargo" as
They took a pirate stand
Oh oh oh oh, Jolly Mon sing
Oh oh oh oh, give them everything
"Jolly Mon, it's over
Sing your last song very well"
They tossed him in the ocean
'cause their hearts were made in hell
Came along a dolphin, he said
"Jolly Mon hello!
I've always loved your singing, climb aboard
Don't let go"
Oh oh oh oh, Jolly Mon sing
Oh oh oh oh, make the oceans ring
The night was filled with magic
They bid the sea goodbye
They swam into the heavens
They stayed up in the sky
And all the island people
When they wish upon a star
See the dolphin and the Jolly Mon
Who tell them where they are
Oh oh oh oh, Jolly Mon sing
Oh oh oh oh, make the heavens ring
Oh oh oh oh, Jolly Mon sing
Oh oh oh oh, make the magic ring
Oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh, Jolly Mon sing
