Way out in the country where I used to live Lordy Lordy what I wouldn't give
|
To turn back the time and be a boy again and see the sun come up every morning
|
A quarter of a mile to the grocery store schoolbus came within a mile off my door
|
And here in distance of a cotton gin a thirty minute walk to Ruby
|
Oh I'd walk it in the moonlight oh I'd walk it on the dark night
|
Rain or shine this heart of mine craved Ruby's company
|
Oh she could kiss me just right oh but I was a little too shy
|
For I got the nerve to make my move Ruby got away from me
|
[ guitar ]
|
Oh I'd walk it in the moonlight...
