Jolly Mon Sing

Jimmy Buffett

7

There is a tale that the island people tell,

Don't care if it is true

because I love so well

Jolly mon sing for his supper every night

the people fed him well

cause he treated them so right

Oohh Jolly mon sing,

oohh make a rhythm ring

And they wanted him to sing on the island

near and far,

He always found his way by orion lucky star

He tells them of their joys

and he tell them of their woes

They love to see him come

they hate to see him go

ooohhhh Jolly mon sing

ooohhhh make the music ring

He was making his way home on a dark and stormy night,

When he a heard a cry for help

he saw a flashing 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

ooohhh Jolly mon sing

ooohhh give them everything

Jolly mon its over since you laugh so 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 on board don't let go

oooohhh jolly mon sing

oooohhh make the ocean's wing

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 to tell them where they are

ooohhh jolly mon sing

ooohhh make the heavens ring

ooohhh jolly mon sing

ooohhh make the magic ring

ooooohhhhhhh jolly mon sing
