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 sang for his supper every night, the people fed him well 'cause he treated them so right, of jolly mon sing, oh make orion ring, and they wanted him to sing on the islands near and far, he always found his way by orion the lucky star, he'd tell them of their joys, he'd tell them of their woes, they'd love to see him come and hate to see him go, oh jolly mon sing, oh make the music ring, he was making his way home on a dark and stormy night, when he heard a cry for help, he saw a flashing light, when he reached the other boat and offered him a hand, they said, "give us all your cargo." as they took a pirate stand, oh jolly mon sing, oh give them everything, "jolly mon we know you - 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 on board and don't let go.", oh jolly mon sing, oh make the oceans ring, the night was filled with magic as 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 jolly mon sing, oh make the heavens ring, oh jolly mon sing, oh make the magic ring
