On and on

Stephen Bishop



Down in Jamaica

They go lots of pretty women

Steal your money

Then they break your heart

Lonesome sue, she's in love with ol'Sam

Take him from the fire into the frying pan



On and on

She just keeps on trying

And she smiles when she feels like crying

On and on, On and on, On and on



Poor ol'Jimmy

Sits alone in the moonlight

Saw his woman kiss another man

So he takes a ladder

Steals the stars from the sky

Puts on sinatra and starts to cry



On and on

He just keeps on trying

And he smiles when he feels like crying

On and on, On and on, On and on



when the first time is the last time

It can make you feel so bad

But if you know it, show it

Hold on tight

Don't let her say: Goodnight



Got the sun on my shoulders

And my toes in the sand

My woman's left me for the some other man

Aw, but I don't care

I'll just dream and stay tan

Toos up my heart to see where it lands



On and on

I just keep on trying

And I smile when I feel like dying

On and on (9x)
