Randy Travis – Honky Tonk Moon Lyrics

 

Dirt road in the twilght, woods so cool and dark.

Up ahead pale neon, somewhere a dog barks,

Honky-tonk moon, keeps shining on my baby and me

 

Breaking up the pool balls, chalking up the cues

Juke box pumping softly, lazy summer blues

Honky-tonk moon, keeps shining on my ba-by and me

 

Through the blue smoky haze, all through the haze

Trouble seems to melt away…

My heart’s on a roll, I’m easy in my soul

There’s no hurry, no worry, things are goin’ my way

 

My arms around my baby, shufflin’ on the floor

Cigarettes and saw-dust, squeaky old screen door.

Honk- Tonk Moon, keeps shinin on my baby and me.

 

Outside the dark is falling, stars are twinkling bright

That old Hoot Owl is calling, every-things all right

 

Honky Tonk Moon, keeps shinin on my baby and me.

Honky Tonk Moon, keeps shinin on my baby and me.
