Ricky Skaggs — Cajun Moon lyrics

Lyrics

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 Moon
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
Pick ups 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 Guitar, a squeeze box, a fiddle, a bow
little band a-playin' every song they know
old woman sittin' there and yellin' for more
my heart is willin', but my feet — they’re so sore!
Once more we’re waltzin' to Jolie Blond
I lean in closer and Sheri responds
her mama’s smilin' as we slip from the room
to sit and stare at the Cajun Moon
