On and On Stephen Bishop (c) 1975
Down in Jamaica they got lots of pretty women Steal your money then they break your heart Lonesome Sue, she's in love with ol' Sam She take him from the fire into the fryin' pan
Chorus
On and on She just keeps on trying C A7 A7+ 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
Repeat Chorus
TAG: 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."
I got the sun on my shoulders and my toes in the sand My woman's left me for some other man Ah, but I don't care -- I'll just dream and stay tanned Toss up my heart and see where it lands.
A7+:
