Lyrics

Moon Shadow

Yes, I'm bein' followed by a moonshadow

Moonshadow, moonshadow

Leapin' and hoppin' on a moonshadow

Moonshadow, moonshadow

And if I ever lose my hands

Lose my plough, lose my land

Oh if I ever lose my hands

Oh if, I won't have to work no more

And if I ever lose my eyes

If my colors all run dry

Yes, if I ever lose my eyes

Oh if, I won't have to cry no more

Yes, I'm bein' followed by a moonshadow

Moonshadow, moonshadow

Leapin' and hoppin' on a moonshadow

Moonshadow, moonshadow

And if I ever lose my legs

I won't moan and I won't beg

Oh if I ever lose my legs

Oh if, I won't have to walk no more

And if I ever lose my mouth

All my teeth, north and south

Yes, if I ever lose my mouth

Oh if, I won't have to talk no more

I'm bein' followed by a moonshadow

Moonshadow, moonshadow

Leapin' and hoppin' on a moonshadow

Moonshadow, moonshadow

Moonshadow, moonshadow

Moonshadow, moonshadow
