under a silvery moon

Big Head Todd and the Monsters

While under a silvery moon, a neon flower born of the desert 
Love to touch her body of water, flicker in the morning light 
While she was still in the mood, 
shaken up like a deer in the headlights 
Crosscut saw, whiskey and moonshine, 
baby don't you spill the wine 

While under a silvery moon, you can't find your way back home 
Keep her shining on you, sweet surrender and you're gone 
Free at last you're on you're own. 

While under a silvery moon, sick and tired of the country and western 
Get the El Dorado back on the pavement. Marguerita where'd ya learn to drive? 
She said it's all about the rhythm and blues, pompadours, taxi confessions 
The kind of speed that'll get you arrested, go on use it baby don't be shy

While under a silvery moon, you can't find your way back home 
Keep her shining on you, sweet surrender and you're gone 
Free at last you're on your own

Free at last you're on your own, 
Surrender and you're done 
Free at last you're on your own 
Don't give up you're almost home 

While under a silvery moon, Boxcar Wiley's guide to the galaxy 
Jack Kerouac's jumping' on ecstasy chugging down the central line 
Elvis and the hullabaloo, truck got busted just an hour ‘for midnight 
Mississippi mud, the river is too wide... 

While under a silvery moon, you can't find your way back home 
Keep her shining on you, sweet surrender and you're gone 
Free at last you're on your own

Yeah you're almost gone 
Under a silvery moon now shine 
Never gonna make it home 
Don't give up you are almost home
