The Ongoing Story Of Mighty Joe Moon Lyrics

Mighty Joe Moon the fishermen croon
Will be resurrected and sing out of tune
And talkin' in tongues sharp as harpoons
The fishers and fishes sing Mighty Joe Moon

From the hour of midnight to the late afternoon
Drifting on Joywater Jazz pontoons
Once Mighty Joe was an oil tycoon
He fell victim like many to the national saloon

And he sank to the bottom low as Neptune
And the divers went down into the lagoon
But they ran out of air and they came up to soon
Their lungs full of water like water balloons

Mighty Joe held in his coral cocoon
Will be resurrected and sing out of tune
This is the story of Mighty Joe Moon
