Jolly Mon Sing Composer(s): Jimmy Buffett Performer(s): Jimmy Buffett; Chuck St. Troy; W.O. Smith Music School Singers
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 the took a pirate stand Oh oh oh oh, Jolly Mon sing Oh oh oh oh, give 'em 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
