VERSE 1:
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

SUE CHORUS:
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

VERSE 2:
Poor ol’ Jimmy
sits a - lone in the moonlight
saw his woman kiss a-nother man
So he - takes a ladder
steals the stars from the sky
puts on Sinatra and starts to cry

JIMMY CHORUS:
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

BRIDGE:
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 goodni-i-i-ight

VERSE 3:
Got - the - sun on my shoulders
and my toes in the sand
wo-man’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

MY CHORUS & OUTRO:
On and on - I just keep on trying
and I smile when I feel like dying
on and on - on and on
on and on

on and on - on and on
on and on

on and on - on and on
on and on
