lyrics

What happened, to Jonah Obiah?
We had such a laugh!
What happened to those good old days?
He knew when the joke had gone too far

What happened, to Jonah Obiah?
Will we see him again?
Remembered as a good old friend
Throughout the year a chum

Here’s to a friend
Here’s to a foe
Here’s to a an old man
Who would never be sold

Where is he, Jonah Obiah?
He died in a shed?
With cattle around his feet
A bullet in his head
We’ll miss him, old Jonah Obiah
He had such a laugh
Until his last few months
Since he was kidnapped
