Mona Lyrics

Mona lyrics

life's good friends are hard to find

 and now one of mine is dead

 and things I should have said to her

 i shall say to you instead

 

 mona mona

 so much of you to love

 too much of you to take care of

 mona mona

 you got too big to keep

 and too damn old to eat

 

 when you where just a football

 at your mama's side

 i reckon everyone figured you

 for a bar-b-que when you died

 and here i'm thinking about you

 lying underground

 pushing up a pine tree in my field

 

 oh mona mona

 you can close your eyes

 i've got a twelve gauge surprise

 waiting for you

 

 since the day she passed away

 everything's just the same

 everywhere i go

 somebody mentions her name

 sometimes it's easiest to tell

 a friend a lie

 they don't understand

 the way i feel

 

 oh mona mona

 so much of you to love

 to much of you to take care of

 so long

 

 now she is gone and i am

 left alone as you can see

 but ever since i caused her death

 i do miss her company
