[00:00.12]'There are times in this crazy world when I truly hope that
[00:13.95]somewhere somebody is living this made up life.'
[00:15.09]There is a tale that the Island people tell
[00:16.68]Don't care if it is true 'cause I love it so well
[00:20.37]Jolly Mon sing for his supper every night
[00:23.40]The people fed him well 'cause he treated them so right
[00:26.97]Oh oh oh oh Jolly Mon sing
[00:30.84]Oh oh oh oh make Orion ring
[00:40.11]And they wanted him to sing on the island near and far
[00:43.38]He always found his way by Orion lucky star
[00:46.74]He'd tell them of their joys, he'd tell them of their woes
[00:50.04]They loved to see him come, they'd hate to see him go
[00:53.82]Oh oh oh oh, Jolly Mon sing
[00:57.39]Oh oh oh oh, make the music ring
[01:06.39]He was makin' his way home on a dark and stormy night
[01:09.75]When he heard a cry for help, he saw a flashin' light
[01:12.93]When he reached the other boat and offered them a hand
[01:16.14]They said, 'Give us all your cargo' as the took a pirate stand
[01:20.13]Oh oh oh oh, Jolly Mon sing
[01:23.58]Oh oh oh oh, give 'em everything
[01:30.21]'Jolly Mon it's over sing your last song very well'
[01:35.88]They tossed him in the ocean 'ause their hearts were made in Hell
[01:39.21]Came along a dolphin, he said, 'Jolly Mon hello!
[01:42.42]I've always loved your singing, climb aboard, don't let go.'
[01:47.49]Oh oh oh oh, Jolly Mon sing
[01:49.53]Oh oh oh oh, make the oceans ring
[02:08.28]The night was filled with magic, they bid the sea goodbye
[02:11.55]They swam into the heavens, they stayed up in the sky
[02:14.85]And all the Island people when they wish upon a star
[02:18.00]See the Dolphin and the Jolly Mon who tell them where they are
[02:22.47]Oh oh oh oh, Jolly Mon sing
[02:25.50]Oh oh oh oh, make the heavens ring
[02:31.80]Oh oh oh oh, Jolly Mon sing
[02:38.25]Oh oh oh oh, make the magic ring!
[02:44.55]Oh oh oh, oh oh oh
[02:45.45]Oh oh oh, oh oh oh
[02:51.24]Oh oh oh oh Jolly Mon sing
