Cajun Moon Lyrics

(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 bayouRicky Skaggs - Cajun Moon - http://motolyrics.com/ricky-skaggs/cajun-moon-lyrics.html
You're just like rain
To a love in bloom so
Shine on me oh, cajun moon.

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.
