Ricky Skaggs - Cajun Moon Lyrics
(Music By Jim Rushing)The moon is full and my heart is whyI love to dance oh me, oh myGonna have more fun than a tree in a coonTonight's the dance of the cajun noon.Chorus:Cajun moon nugget of goldRiver of light on the bayouYou're just like rainTo a love in bloom soShine on me oh, cajun moon.Pick ups and wagons 'round the river road shackBonfires draw in a crowd out backStep through the door and I see my SheriThat's when I see her mamas eyes on me.Chorus:Cajun moon nugget of goldRiver of light on the bayouYou're just like rainTo a love in bloom soShine on me oh, cajun moon.Guitar, a squeeze box, a fiddle, a bowLittle band a-playin' every song they knowOld woman sittin' there and yellin' for moreMy heart is willin', but my feet - they're so sore!Chorus:Cajun moon nugget of goldRiver of light on the bayouYou're just like rainTo a love in bloom soShine on me oh, cajun moon.Once more we're waltzin' to Jolie BlondI lean in closer and Sheri respondsHer mama's smilin' as we slip from the roomTo sit and stare at the cajun noon.Chorus:Cajun moon nugget of goldRiver of light on the bayouYou're just like rainTo a love in bloom soShine on me oh, cajun moon...
