Ricky Skaggs "Cajun Moon" |
(Jim Rushing) The moon is full and my heart is why I love to dance oh me, oh my Gonna have more fun than a tree in a coon Tonight's the dance of the cajun noon. Pickups and wagons 'round the river road shack Bonfires draw in a crowd out back Step through the door and I see my Sheri That's when I see her mamas eyes on me. Chorus: Cajun moon nugget of gold River of light on the bayou You're just like rain To a love in bloom so Shine on me oh, cajun moon. Guitar, a squeeze box, a fiddle and bow Little band a-playin' every song they know Old woman sittin' there and yellin' for more My heart is willin', but my feet are sore! Chorus: Cajun moon nugget of gold River of light on the bayou You're just like rain To a love in bloom so Shine on me oh, cajun moon. --- Instrumental --- Once more we're waltzin' to Jolie Blon I'm leanin' closer and Sheri responds Her mama's smilin' as we slip from the room To sit and stare at the cajun noon. Chorus: Cajun moon nugget of gold River of light on the bayou You're just like rain To a love in bloom so Shine on me oh, cajun moon. Chorus: Cajun moon nugget of gold River of light on the bayou You're just like rain To a love in bloom so Shine on me oh, cajun moon. --- Instrumental to fade --- Lyric from www.lyricmania.com |
