Mona - James Taylor

Lifes 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 mamas side

I reckon everyone figured you

For a bar-b-que when you died

And here Im thinking about you

Lying underground

Pushing up a pine tree in my field

Oh mona mona

You can close your eyes

Ive got a twelve gauge surprise

Waiting for you

Since the day she passed away

Everythings just the same

Everywhere I go Somebody mentions her name

Sometimes its easiest to tell

A friend a lie

They dont 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
