Waylon Jennings - Mona Lyrics
I can give you golden tinkling bells
To even dangle through your long black hair
I can give you magic satin slippers
Woven just to take you anywhere.
A broken heart can spare
But Mona take the love I give
Don't ask for love I gave away back there.
You could take the hand of any man
And show him how to dream
Why do you look back into my dark
And bitter past, can't you see?
Mona when you found me
Mona please be satisfied walking
Through tomorrow here with me.
I can give you golden tinkling bells
To even dangle through your long black hair
I can give you magic satin slippers
Woven just to take you anywhere...

Waylon Jennings Mona Comments
Beautiful this song, Thank you Waylon. For leaving you music🌙⚡️⭐️🌟😊🧸🧸🧸❤️❤️❤️Rip🙏🙏🙏
Everything he sings is great!
I believe he wrote this for Jessie. Beautiful!
Love,love,love Waylon singing this song. One of the great hurtin songs,sang so beautifully by Waylon. The steele guitar is sublime. Play it Moon. Love the quiet singing at the end. Wonderful arrangement. RIP waylon
One of my favourite songs by Waylon,have sat listening to it many a time with tears in my eyes
Love this man!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
My favorite singer after Elvis.Waylon is the king of country music after my opinion. No one over,no one beside.Waylon,you made me love country music.:)
Great ....
Jessi Colter, his wife, wrote this for him to sing. Had she tweaked the lyrics a bit so she herself could sing it from "Mona's" perspective, she would have had one hell of a follow-up to her "I'm Not Lisa" blockbuster. Waylon always turns any song into magic, for sure.
Jonathan Kieran jessi wanted waylon to make this song sound like he wrote it. He talks about it in an interview
This is a song that comes from the inside out, a very fantastically great song of deepest feeling. From the gutter all dreams shattered, a fallen man, through love lifted up built a successful life just to have that love drop him on his face, loosing what he held most dear, the love that lifted him up, nothing else truly matters anymore….. a true soul gripping song from the man that rocks the depth of music. maybe to truly connect you would have to of been there,
@Jennifer Snyder truly haunting melody of loneliness
You did it again..posting such a moving song by the master. Thank you, Eddie.
mamoet trucker holland this is a beautiful song hy was de best together whit themoon
The live version of this song is tremendous. Much better than the album version. Makes me wish my name was Mona! :)
Had this on an 8 track, I missed my dad. He made the 8 track for me. My mom continued to get married 7-9 more times, still had dad and Waylon, LOL. He still contined to provide me with Waylon thru 8 track, then cassettes, then CDs
plus I always do this one or Them old love songs in my sets when I'm performing the Ladies love it...thx for your dedication to ol'Waymore
One of his very best, it may not be perfect, have the best arrangement, but it's the soul you can hear in it and his voice...thats what made Waylon so good
The warm weeping sound of the steel guitar and Waylon's unbelievably beautiful voice.....2:49 minutes of pure enchanting feel good music.....xxx
sorry to disagree teddie but this is one of his best, just not the most well known
I know there is no such thing as a "favorite" when it comes to Waylon's songs but this one is my all time night time favorite, on repeat, the music is so "soothening" and takes me back to yesteryears!!!!
I imagine that Jessi wrote this song about herself (at his request). Either way, I think it's one of the sweetest songs on "This Time"
Thanks for posting it.
