And now one of mine is dead
And things I should have said to her
I shall say to you instead
Mona mona
So much of you to love
Too much of you to take care of
Mona mona
You got too big to keep
And too damn old to eat
When you where just a football
At your mama's side
I reckon everyone figured you
For a bar-b-que when you died
And here I'm thinking about you
Lying underground
Pushing up a pine tree in my field
Oh mona mona
You can close your eyes
[Mona lyrics on http://www.metrolyrics.com]I've got a twelve gauge surprise
Waiting for you
Since the day she passed away
Everything's just the same
Everywhere I go
Somebody mentions her name
Sometimes it's easiest to tell
A friend a lie
They don't understand
The way I feel
Oh mona mona
So much of you to love
To much of you to take care of
So long
Now she is gone and I am
Left alone as you can see
But ever since I caused her death
I do miss her company
Life's good friends are hard to find And now one of mine is dead And things I should have said to her I shall say to you instead Mona mona So much of you to love Too much of you to take care of Mona mona You got too big to keep And too damn old to eat When you where just a football At your mama's side I reckon everyone figured you For a bar-b-que when you died And here I'm thinking about you Lying underground Pushing up a pine tree in my field Oh mona mona You can close your eyes [Mona lyrics on http://www.metrolyrics.com]I've got a twelve gauge surprise Waiting for you Since the day she passed away Everything's just the same Everywhere I go Somebody mentions her name Sometimes it's easiest to tell A friend a lie They don't understand The way I feel Oh mona mona So much of you to love To much of you to take care of So long Now she is gone and I am Left alone as you can see But ever since I caused her death I do miss her company Explain Request ×
