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 them 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
Jolly Mon sing
