BONY MORONIE


I got a girl named Bonie Moronie
She's as skinny as a stick of macaroni
When she rock and rolls with her blue jeans on
She's not very fat, just skin and bones
I love her, she loves me
Oh, how happy now we can be
Making love underneath the apple tree

Well, I told her mama and papa too
Just exactly what I wanna do
I wanna get married on a night in Jun
Rock and roll by the light of a Silvery Moon
I love her, she loves me
Oh, how happy (now) we can be
Making love underneath the apple tree

I got a girl named Bonie Moronie
She's as skinny as a stick of macaroni
When she rock and rolls with her blue jeans on
She's not very fat, just skin and bones
I love her, she loves me
Oh, how happy we can be
I love her, she loves me
Oh, how happy we can be
Making love underneath the apple tree
Making love underneath the apple tree
Making love underneath the apple tree

She's my one and only, she's my heart's desire*
She's a real up setter, she's a real live wire*
Everybody turns when my baby walks by*
She's something to see, she really catches the eye*


(Larry Williams). Performed once, with Gary US Bonds, on 02 Jul 1989, Long Branch, NJ.

* Some words were sung or not, depending on the version. This verse always is left out because Dr. Feelgood serves this song with a bit of 'Tequila'.
