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, Jolly Mon sing
 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 (Jolly Mon), Jolly Mon sing
 Oh-oh-oh (Jolly Mon), 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 (Jolly Mon), Jolly Mon sing
 Oh-oh-oh (Jolly Mon), 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 (Jolly Mon), Jolly Mon sing
 Oh-oh-oh (Jolly Mon), 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 'em where they are
 Oh-oh-oh (Jolly Mon), Jolly Mon sing
 Oh-oh-oh (Jolly Mon), make the heavens ring
 Oh-oh-oh (Jolly Mon), Jolly Mon sing
 Oh-oh-oh (Jolly Mon), make the magic ring
 Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
 Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
 Oh-oh-oh, Jolly Mon sing
