Big Jonah The Maori

He comes from the place where the kiwi at night
Can be heard calling in the moonlight
Dark haired tall and hansome and broad shouldered with eyes of dark brown
His life journey began in a far away town

One who has traveled his share in a short space of time
In his early twenties not yet in his prime
Of his Maori heritage he does feel proud
Jonah from the Land of the Long White Cloud

Big Jonah he does make a friend every day
About him he has such a likeable way
He is always smiling he does seem carefree
Just a gentle giant is how he seems to be

His Aussie girl friend Linda is pregnant the great love of his life
Their wedding date set soon for to be his wife
Hand in hand in the park them i often does see
And they never do fail for to acknowledge me

In his early twenties full of life's youthful elan
Big Jonah the Maori a gentle giant of a man
So likeable and honest free of conceit and guile
He greets everybody with a welcoming smile.
