Jimmy Buffett Jolly Mon Lyrics

Jolly Mon Lyrics

There is a tale that the island people tell
Don’t know if it is true but I love it so well
Jolly mon sings for his supper every night
People fed him well ’cause he treated them so right
Oh oh oh oh jolly mon sing
Oh oh oh oh make orion ring
Well he always like to go to the islands 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 magic ring

He was makin’ his way home on a dark and stormy night
When he heard a cry for help, and he saw a passin’ light
When he reached the other boat, 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 ’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, give ’em everything

The night was filled with magic, they bid the sea goodbye
Swam into the heavens and 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, give ’em everything
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

Oh oh oh, oh oh oh
Oh oh oh, oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh jolly mon sing
