Bony Maronie

by Johnnie Allan

on Essential Collection: The Second Volume (1999)

I got a girl named Bony Maronie
She's as skinny as a stick of macaroni
Ought to see her rock and roll with her blue jeans on
She's not very fat, just skin and bone

But I love her, she loves me
We're all happy now as we could be
Making love underneath the apple tree

She's my one and only, she's my heart's desire
She's a real upsetter, she's a real live wire
Everybody turns when my baby goes by
She's a real upsetter, she's a real live wire

But I love her, she loves me
We're all happy now as we could be
Making love underneath the apple tree

Well, I told her mama and her papa too
Just exactly what we're gonna do
We're gonna get married on a night in June
And rock and roll by the light of the silvery moon

But I love her, she loves me
We're all happy now as we could be
Making love underneath the apple tree
