Moonbeam - Carpe Diem, Willy Porter

Hello little moonbeam

Such a welcome sight

I’ve got nothing in my pockets

Walk with me tonight

Old cars in the tall grass

Broken glass and chrome

Down along the railway

Behind my parent’s home

Hiding in the sumac

Waiting for a train

Got a penny on the railway

Hello little moonbeam

I forgot your song

Every cross tie tells me

I’ve been gone too long

Seems to me

That you give your light so freely

Won’t you shed your beams on me

I need you, little moonbeam

When I was a young boy

Balanced on this rails

I’d hold my jacket high, lord

Wind would fill my sail

Hello little moonbeam

Balanced on this rail

I’ll hold my jacket high, lord

Wind come fill my sail

Hiding in the sumac

Waiting for a train

Got a penny on the railway
