Lyrics Encore Medley: Bony Moronie/Forty Days/Almost Grown - 1973 Live Version - Gram Parsons

Well, I gotta girl named Bonie Moronie
She's as skinny as a stick of macaroni
Oh, you ought to see her rock and roll with her blue jeans on
Well, she's not very fat, just skin and bones

I love her, she loves me
Oh, how happy now we can be
Makin' love underneath the apple tree

Well, I told her mama and her papa too
Just exactly what I'm gonna do
Yeah, I'm gonna marry Bonie on a night in June
Rock and roll by the light of the silvery moon

And I love her, she loves me
Oh, how happy now we can be
Makin' love underneath the apple tree

She's my one and only, she's my heart's desire
She's a real humdiger, she's a real live wire
Oh, everybody looks when my baby walks by
But they're not in love, they're just catching the eye

And I love her, she loves me
Oh, how happy now we can be
Makin' love underneath the apple tree, yeah

I'm gonna give you forty days to get back home
I gon' call you gypsy woman on the telephone
I'm gonna send out a word via the voodoo
That'll be the very thing that suits ya
I'm gonna see that you be back home in forty days

Oh, forty days (forty days)
Yeah, forty days (forty days)
Oh, I'll see that you be back home in forty days (forty days)
Gonna send out a word via the voodoo
That'll be the very thing that suits you
I'm gonna see that you be back home in forty days

You know I'm doing all right in school
They ain't said I broke no rules
I ain't never been in love
I don't fool around too much
Don't bother us, leave us alone
Anyway, we're almost grown
Oh, yeah

Party days
Party days
Party days
Party days
Whoa-whoa-whoa-ooh
Party days

Gonna get myself another job (party days)
I don't hang around with no mob (party days)
Gonna get out of this God damn town (party days)
Gonna get married and settle down (party days)
Don't bother us, leave us alone (whoa-whoa-whoa-ooh)
Anyway, we're almost grown, oh (party days)

Party days
Party days
Party days
Party days
Whoa, whoa, whoa-ooh
Party days

Thank you, thank you, thank you
Thank you very much
Outstanding, outstanding
