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
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
