Jolly mon sing<br>By: jimmy buffett, will jennings, michael utley<br>1985<br>There are times in this crazy world when I truly hope that<br>Somewhere somebody is living this made up life.<br>There is a tale that the island people tell<br>Don't care if it is true 'cause I love it so well<br>Jolly mon sing for his supper every night<br>The people fed him well 'cause he treated them so right<br>Oh oh oh oh jolly mon sing<br>Oh oh oh oh make orion ring<br><br>And they wanted him to sing on the island near and far<br>He always found his way by orion lucky star<br>He'd tell them of their joys, he'd tell them of their woes<br>They loved to see him come, they'd hate to see him go<br>Oh oh oh oh, jolly mon sing<br>Oh oh oh oh, make the music ring<br><br>He was makin' his way home on a dark and stormy night<br>When he heard a cry for help, he saw a flashin' light<br>When he reached the other boat and offered them a hand<br>They said, give us all your cargo as the took a pirate stand<br>Oh oh oh oh, jolly mon sing<br>Oh oh oh oh, give 'em everything<br><br>Jolly mon it's over sing your last song very well<br>They tossed him in the ocean 'ause their hearts were made in hell<br>Came along a dolphin, he said, jolly mon hello!<br>I've always loved your singing, climb aboard, don't let go.<br>Oh oh oh oh, jolly mon sing<br>Oh oh oh oh, make the oceans ring<br><br>The night was filled with magic, they bid the sea goodbye<br>They swam into the heavens, they stayed up in the sky<br>And all the island people when they wish upon a star<br>See the dolphin and the jolly mon who tell them where they are<br>Oh oh oh oh, jolly mon sing<br>Oh oh oh oh, make the heavens ring<br><br>Oh oh oh oh, jolly mon sing<br>Oh oh oh oh, make the magic ring!<br><br>Oh oh oh, oh oh oh<br>Oh oh oh, oh oh oh<br>Oh oh oh oh jolly mon sing<br><br>- notes:<br>Background vocals: timothy b. schmit, harry stinson<br>Featuring robert greenidge on steel drums
